Yes, talk to me:) As a DejaVu maintainer, we welcome anyone who wants to implement Japanese and Chinese :-) , you'll probably make many people happy (and also some unhappy...) But as I don't see that happening soon, I suggest implementing a fall back mechanism. Bonus points for adding a language aware mechanism which chooses different fonts for Chinese, Japanese and Korean, and different ones for normal Arabic, Persian and Urdu :-) Greetings Ben ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] Japanese place names not rendered in Mapnik
Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but Japanese isn't being rendered in Mapnik properly - I am just seeing a rectangle for each character. eg http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=35.711lon=139.869zoom=11layers=B0FT Anyone know what to do about this?
