Great! Thanks!

Nevertheless, I reduced zh-hk.orth to only one single line (just the code "4E04") and fontconfig still wouldn't recognize any font as such, so I suspect the problem lies somewhere else. But yes, I shall do more experiment and let you know of the result. :-) Thanks again, Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling ThizLinux Laboratory <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.thizlinux.com/ Debian Chinese Project <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.org/intl/zh/ Come visit Our Lady of Victory Camp! http://www.olvc.ab.ca/ _______________________________________________ Fonts mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/fonts
