For that case I have made my own chinese ttf font which contains the following encodings (it's a unicode font of course): Big5 (traditional chinese), GB2312 (simplefied chinese), ISO8859-1,2,3,4,7,9,10,11,13,14,15 as far as I remember... :) (means practically all western and middle european chars, plus vietnamese) HKSCS (Hong Kong extenstions) and CNS11843 (all currently encoded traditional chinese chars), as well as GB18030 (full set of chinese chars) are work in progress. Extended Bopomofo for Minnan (Taiwanese) and Hakka are also included. The fonts are about 12 MB each and are based on the Arphic fonts which are already in debian. The cyrillic and greek glyphs might seem odd for you, they are double width, according to chinese standards. You can download them from http://wiki.debian.org.tw/index.php?page=3Anoppix deb packages are available and work on my system. :) I use KDE3 btw... Don't forget they are work in progress and updated frequently (but most additions are made to chinese). Cheers Arne - -- Arne Goetje <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (Spam catcher.
