I just noticed something unexpected: I have ttf-bitstream-vera installed. I run gucharmap, and check Vera, Vera Sans, and Vera Mono. I see all characters for "Basic Latin" and "Latin-1 Supplement", but only about half the characters for "Latin Extended-A". Then, I install ttf-dustin and run gucharmap again. This time, for Vera & VeraSans & VeraMono I see all the characters for "Latin Extended-A" except U+0138 LATIN SMALL LETTER KRA. When I uninstall ttf-dustin, it goes back to only showing about half. It's repeatable. What's going on? Another question: apt-cache show ttf shows several potential chinese fonts. Microsoft has a variation of Arial (and some others) that has almost the full Unicode character set (it's like 30mb font) when you install Chinese support; is there something like that for Linux? Or should I just use the Microsoft complete-Unicode fonts? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
