Re: Fonts/encoding

you need to install specific font for japanese

try wqy-bitmapfont package in slitaz, or search for generic fonts like unifont (http://www.unifoundry.com/unifont.html)

Re: Fonts/encoding

wqy-bitmapfont works fine but  for chinese sites only (so finally I can 'see' chinese slitaz subforum).

Also some sites in Polish are not displayed properly - question marks instead of letters.

I noticed many Slitaz users speak Russian - I wonder what packages in Slitaz are responsilble for cyrillic fonts.

Unifont - I will investigate later.

Thanx!

Re: Fonts/encoding

mt12345,

please, share link to web site you shooted. I have a big font collection, and I think I can find one for you, well, only if here is font (not html code) issue.

Also, please, tell me, have you glibc-locale package installed?

And yes, I'm Russian, and I see Russian letters in SliTaz menu from first LiveCD boot without any movements from my side.

Re: Fonts/encoding

It's not only about polish and japanese fonts. Id like my system to be able display in all languages:

Example:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth

on the left pane under 'languages' at least 20 of them are not displayed properly.

Re: Fonts/encoding

You know, all you had to do was install the droid font to fix it on a font level.
