So I am not sure what exactly your problem is.
Sorry for my poor English. I have to write some Chinese big5 characters to explain the problem here. I mean can we write a fonts.alias someting like: "-aliasarphic-�s�ө���-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-big5-0" \ "-Arphic-AR PL Mingti2L Big5-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-big5-0" "-aliasarphic-�з���-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-big5-0" \ "-Arphic-AR PL KaitiM Big5-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-big5-0" so that when the homepage need "�s�ө���" the browser will use "AR PL Mingti2L Big5", and "�з���" will use "AR PL KaitiM Big5" automatically? As your explain, Xft can recognize UTF-8 font family names. Is it possible that XLFD can use UTF-8 font family names too? I try UTF-8 and big5 but in vain. The property of FAMILY_NAME is type ATOM, seems can use ISO-8859-1 encoding only? (I'm sorry, if I misunderstand something, I'm still new to X) Hope that is clearly and thank for your replying. -- Warm Regards, Edward G.J.
