It ought to work - but as you say, it may be a font problem. Setting a suitable font for a non-XFT build can be tricky, since that might limit the choice of fonts your font-engine has available. XFT can pretty much render most font types, including OpenType and TrueType and so on, but if you fall back to Xlib font handling, the choices may be more limited. Hard to say from here... If it didn't crash, I would recommend to always use the XFT option. I think Greg often renders Japanese text in his applications, and if I recall correctly, he does not use XFT in his builds? If so, that would tend to indicate that it *can* work... Sorry not to have more to offer just now. I'll think about it, but it will be tricky at this time of year, so don't wait too long for my answer! Cheers to all, -- Ian ps: Happy (insert festive season here) to all those who's cultures have a festival at this time of year. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
