Pango and Mozilla have > such support, but I'm not sure Qt can yet manage this. But when something like "XXX abcd XXX" (XXX stands for chinese characters) sent to the application, it will be handled in Chinese encoding, then it will be rendered by xft with the Chinese TTF file. The applications cannot split "XXX abcd XXX" to "XXX" + "abcd" + "XXX" for different languages.(Note that encodings like GB2312 is compatible with us-ascii). So I want to find a solution transparent to applications. > > -keith > > > > _______________________________________________ > Fontconfig mailing list > Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://mail.fontconfig.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
