If anyone does come across a version of Times that supports Chinese characters, I'd very much appreciate a link :-)
I think there is a scenario where Times New Roman is desirable - when some of the text is to be rendered normally in English as Times serif, alongside passages of Chinese text. I'm currently looking into this exact scenario at the moment. The only font I've been able get working for Chinese is Arial-Unicode but it means that for generic paragraph text one must choose to default to Arial-Unicode if one wants to capture the Chinese glyphs and any other text within the same document flow. cheers Andy -----Original Message----- From: J.Pietschmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 October 2007 21:10 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Chinese characters in Times New Roman? mblee wrote: > Is it possible to display chinese characters in Times New Roman font?

If you find a Times New Roman font with Chinese glyphs, then yes, it is possible to to display chinese characters in Times New Roman font. Strictly speaking, the question doesn't make sense, because there is no proper mapping of the Times Roman serif style to a font style for Chinese characters.
