This is because the OpenType font contains a Unicode mapping table (i.e. a table that says "U+E046 is named Q.alt" etc.). Such tables get lost when an OpenType font is converted to Type 1 since the latter format lacks support for them. For Type 1, troff currently has internal mappings defined for Latin and Cyrillic characters only. thanks very much for the explanation!
I've also tested with ttf file (I'm an newbie to troff)like: .do xflag 3 .lc_ctype zh_CN.utf8 .fp 1 R STXingKai ttf .fp 0 T STXingkai ttf .ft T 中文 It also gives error: troff: Can't load font... maybe it duce to the ttf file, I'm not very sure.
