Simplified Chinese (GB2312) in Manila (#16120)
Reply To This Message [Edit]
I looked at your Chinese page. It seems very good. I think the Simplified Chinese is rather easy to handle, because it is a EUC encoding, using all "higher ASCII" characters. What would be much harder is a mixed text with Simplified Chinese and some language using "higher ASCII", like French.
Another more complicated problem is rendering Japanese or Traditional Chinese with Frontier. I worked very hard for that some years ago, at the time of Frontier 4.2.3 (I am still using it...). But I don't think this would work with more recent versions of Frontier. And I have never tried Radio...
Anyway, it seems that Frontier is net yet Unicode savvy... Sigh...!
And Phil, are you still interested in rendering Japanese text with Frontier?
