I've read what's in the archives of this list (e.g., https://listman.redhat.com/pipermail/psyche-list/2002-November/005605.html), but it still doesn't work. Emacs & Mozilla work, fairly painlessly, as does gnome-terminal and most of the RedHat environment, when I log in with my language set to Japanese. But, not those two; I suspect the problem remains Japanese TrueType fonts, though I'm not even sure how to figure out what fonts it thinks it's using. I'm up to the stage, with Evolution, that it displays (some) menus in Japanese, and will even display the subject correctly in Japanese in the preview pane. But, it never displays the body of the message correctly -- not in the preview pane, nor in a separate window, just squares or underlines on the screen. I can type in Japanese, and see the hiragana as I type, but after the henkan (change to kanji), it becomes just squares on the screen. I have tried selecting different fonts and sizes in Evolution's Tools->Settings->Font Preferences, and get different behavior, but never the correct thing. The set of fonts I'm offered there is pretty limited. OpenOffice is similar. I added <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1</dir> <dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir> <dir>/usr/share/fonts/ja/TrueType</dir> <dir>/usr/share/fonts/ja/misc</dir> <dir>~/.fonts</dir> in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf (does this recurse? That would make the latter two entries unnecessary), and that's how I got to at least partially working, but can't get any farther. (xlsfonts | wc didn't change -- it's still 1899.) OpenOffice is worse; even the menus result in just squares showing up. But again, it appears that I can *type* in Japanese, I just can't see what I'm typing! Any help greatly appreciated. --Rod -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
