My Korean customer thinks the Korean Hangul font in LibreOffice is
very attractive and I would like to use the same font in a DocBook
document I create for him. By looking at the document parameters for
one of the glyphs I see the name of the font but it's in Hangul. How
can I find (and refer to) the font file when I can't use unicode on
the file system (or at least I don't know how to do it)? Is there an
ASCII mapping for such font names?

This might work:
Open a new document. Select the font. Type a few characters (doesn't
matter if they are roman or hangul). Export as PDF/A-1a. Open in Adobe
Reader: File|Preferences|Fonts.
Thanks, NoOp, I used your idea but I already had the document so I
saved it in the format you suggested and then opened it in evince
(Ubuntu's default pdf reader).
Then under File|Properties|Fonts I found the Hangul font name:
UnDotum
On my system I then did:
locate UnDotum
and found this:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/UnDotum.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/unfonts/UnDotumBold.ttf
Just what I was looking for!
Thanks all--now I have the source of some great (and free) Hangul fonts.
Best regards,
-Tom
Well, I looked [Google-ed] and one site showed that UnDotum has 11,172
"Hangul Syllables". Also it appears that is has at least RPM installs
available, outside of installing the .TTF files directly.
