I think you do not need to care which font has Chinese & Japanese
characters if you use Unicode application in win2000 or XP or win2003.
All them are Unicode code OS, they support Chinese & Japanese and other
languages. You just need to set the OS to support Far East Languages (in
control panel Regional).
When you show unicode Chinese string, they will be shown to be Chinese
characters no matter what font you are used.
For example, I always use "Arial" font in my Dotnet WinForm app in
English win2000 & XP, the chinese string always will be chinese characters.
You can also show Chinese, Japanese at the same time in same app.
For non-Unicode app, you need to set the OS default ANSI character set
to the suitable language. However, you just can support one language at
anytime.
