Hi Hans, I tried to use Chinese opentype fonts with luatex + plain fmt but I failed. Only with Chinese TTF fonts it can work.
This a simple example: \pdfoutput=1 \font\myfont=AdobeSongStd-Light \myfont 我想实现 LuaTeX 对中文的支持 \end When I compiled it, I got the following messages: This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.41.0-2009051221 (Web2C 7.5.7) \write18 enabled. (tt.tex (luatex-basics.tex) (luatex-fonts.tex <luatex-fonts-merged.lua> <luatex -fonts.lua loaded in 0.027 seconds>) (luatex-mplib.tex) LuaTeX warning: lua-loaded font [51] (/usr/share/fonts/adobe/AdobeSongStd-Light .otf) has no characters!
