Another issue from the KDE support lists.
Does FontConfig deal correctly with non-Latin font names.
The example posted is:
http://www.linuxsir.org/bbs/
The first font on the list is non-Latin.
The encoding is gb2312. In Hex it is: eb ee ec e5.
How does FontConfig handle such a font name.
It would appear that it might also have to deal with the fact that KDE/Qt might
convert it to either:
UTF8: e5 ae 8b e4 93
16 bit: 5b8b 4f53
If this does work with FontConfig, which encoding should be used?
any help would be appreciated.
