You just need to use the right font and the right string and you'll get the
characters, the glyphs, that you want. Each font has a table which maps
Unicode character numbers into the drawings, or glyphs, which are the
corresponding letters or symbols. Most fonts, especially those in Windows
CE, don't have the full Unicode character set in them, so drawing a given
Chinese character on an English device gives you nothing (or an empty square
glyph, maybe). So, you may need to buy one or more fonts for use with your
platform and install them in the \Windows\Fonts directory (and, of course,
reference them from your code).
