Hi all,
 we are currently translating our website in japanese. Our system and
our website is full utf-8 .

Here is a problem we have:

 Under linux/firefox 2.0 , the rendering is different if a webpage is
encoded in euc-jp or in utf-8.

I did some tests with yahoo.jp home page:

- Have a look at yahoo.jp in firefox . All the characters are nicely
displayed and antialiased.
 This page is encoded as euc-jp

- Save the yahoo.jp home page html .
- Change the encoding from euc-jp to utf-8:
  iconv -f euc-jp -t utf-8 yahoohome.html > yahoohome_utf8.html

- Now open yahoohome_utf8.html in firefox, set the view -> character
encoding to utf8 (it's still stated in the file that it's a euc-jp
page).

If you compare the two versions,
 - the one with euc-jp encoded character is perfect.
 - the one with utf-8 encoded characters have got the same characters
everywhere but about half of them is display very roughly, without any
antialising.

As far as I understand how character encoding works, the encoding of
the page should not influence the picked code point of the displayed
character, but here apparently it's the case.
The encoding seems to have an effect on which character is picked from
the character set.

This problem doesn't appear in ie for linux ( from
http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page ) nor in ie or
firefox for windows

I'm a bit confused.

Thanks for any help !

Jerome
