Doh! I'm a nutter. That works. Thanks. The only font choice offered
apart from "Raster Fonts" in the Command Prompt window's Properties
box is "Lucida Console", not "Lucida Sans Unicode". It will let me
print Cyrillic characters from a C program, but not Chinese. I'm off
looking for how to get a better font.
Cheers,
John
