I'm finding it very difficult to get started with CJK to do a very simple thing. I'm running it on Debian Squeeze and using latex or lualatex. At this point, all I need to do is to include a few Chinese pinyin characters in an article.
I installed latex-cjk-chinese. I gathered it requires in addition the installation of a suitable font. I was told to install hbf-jfs56 to get bitmap fonts for simplified Chinese. But I cannot find it. So I installed the Arphic fonts that are available for my distribution (latex-cjk-chinese-arphic-bkai00mp, etc). For simplified fonts I suppose I should choose either SungtiL GB, KaitiM GB. Where do I find out what their difference is? Although the Chinese characters are shown in the CJK arphic-sampler.tex when I compile with latex, when I add: \usepackage{luacode} \usepackage{fontspec} \usepackage{pinyin} \usepackage[USenglish]{babel} and try to compile with lualatex, the characters don't display. How do I imput chinese characters? Do I need to install scim or is there some way to input their hex codes?
