The name is Latin name. For example, 'xlsfonts | grep simsun' shows:
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-gb2312.1980-0
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-gb2312.1980-0
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-jisx0208.1983-0
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-jisx0208.1983-0
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-jisx0208.1990-0
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-jisx0208.1990-0
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-koi8-r
-misc-simsun-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-koi8-r
Furthermore, 'xdvi' can generate the additional fonts correctly, and
some other KDE applications (so they use Qt) do display chacacters
with font 'simsun'.
Thank you very much.
