Im using code page 1250 (ISO 8859.2) . But English system is 100% compatible
with this code page .. There must be problem in Director. But Why another
softwares have not problems with this codepage ??

There are more problems with fonts .. Director hangs on some antialiased
fonts (on system multitable fonts , like ARIAL, TIMES etc).
Im using mainly URW 1 and 2 fonts. Director not hangs on this fonts .. But I
have lot off problems with diacritics fonts ..
I got an little help .. Im im import fonts in any old win95 , this imported
fonts works better .. Imported fonts in win2000/NT are really not usable ..
Im not see diacritics signs in Text Edit window. An biggest problem is sign
ž ( its z with ˇ upper) . Im getting an box sign .. Not a correct
character.. After importing font in oldie win95 , then characters at stage
are correct but with very big kekring .. Then I need to set in text
properties KERINING = none .. But in Text editing windows is still boxes,
not corrects characters ..
