Dear all,

I am trying to replace the Traditional Chinese font in
CE4.2 PXA255 platform. I followed the instruction of the
online help by the below steps:
1.included the ttf file under \\windows directory
2. modified the below registry
    . enable font link
    . indicate ttf file location
**********************************************************
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI]
 "FontLinkMethods"=dword:1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink
}
     "Tahoma"="\\Windows\\mingliu.ttc,PMingLiU"
              --> "\\Windows\dftc.ttf"
     "Courier New"="\\Windows\\mingliu.ttc,PMingLiU"
              --> "\\Windows\dftc.ttf"
     "Arial"="\\Windows\\mingliu.ttc,PMingLiU"
              --> "\\Windows\dftc.ttf"
     "Times New Roman"="\\Windows\\mingliu.ttc,PMingLiU"
              --> "\\Windows\dftc.ttf"
     "Symbol"="\\Windows\\mingliu.ttc,PMingLiU"
              --> "\\Windows\dftc.ttf"
**********************************************************

However, once done, all chinese characters turn to □
symbol. Am I missing something?

Now I used another way instead that modifing the bib file
to change the tahoma font source file to the new font. It
works. However, it will lose choice to pick up different
fonts for English and Chinese separately, because there
is only one font in the system now.

Thanks,

Jay
