That would be nice. MS Word sometimes spits out Chinese fontname, sometimes English fontnames, and sometimes it is implied: It would say the entire document uses "Times News Roman", but Word could still display the Chinese characters because it uses "MingLiU" or other CJK fonts as fallback. Yes, there are probably too many variations, so AbiWord will have to be smart; and we may have to maintain a small list of fontname data in AbiWord too. I don't know. :-) Thanks, Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling ThizLinux Laboratory <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.thizlinux.com/ Debian Chinese Project <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.org/intl/zh/ Come visit Our Lady of Victory Camp! http://www.olvc.ab.ca/
