------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-21 23:57 ------- Yes, the kochi fonts seem to work very well. However, as you say, I believe that the wadalab and watanabe fonts are used for printing. I have been googling for a discussion about setting those fonts up with xft2/Qt3/fontconfig but I've been mostly unsuccessful. It is worth noting that receiving boxes instead of a character is often indicative of encoding problems. Looking at kochi-gothic.ttf and kochi-mincho.ttf, I get: encoding 0: Apple Roman encoding 1: Windows Unicode while looking at wadalab-gothic.ttf and watanabe-mincho.ttf, I get: encoding 0: Apple Roman encoding 1: Apple Japanese encoding 2: Windows Shift-JIS encoding 3: Windows Shift-JIS Also, could the following be related to our troubles? http://www.freetype.org/pipermail/devel/2002-December/008719.html ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: On a fresh cooker installation, I selected Japanese as a second language during the installation. When I browse through the font list in the font-setup module in kcontrol, I cannot find any of the Japanese fonts: kochi-gothic kochi-mincho wadalab-gothic wadalab-mincho I cannot find them in the drakfont listing either. I tried this with and without AA on, both in a Japanese KDE environment as well as an English KDE environment. I then copied /usr/share/fonts/ttf/japanese/kochi-gothic.ttf to /tmp and used drakfont to install it, and then it appeared in the drakfont listings as well as the KDE font-module. At this point, I also looked in OpenOffice.org, and I could not find the wadalab fonts, but both kochi-gothic and kochi-mincho were in the font listings there. This looks like an incorrect font setup to me! Note: To be precise: When one uses localedrake to setup a Japanese account, wadalab is set up as the default fixed font in KDE [can't remember which one of the two, gothic or mincho]. However, wadalab doesn't appear in the listing of the selectable fonts.
