Thanks David and Ming.

Hi David:
Thank you for the align grob.
The chinese character is double byte. Please refer to lyric d & f :
correspondent Chinese character to d is ok but the Chinese character at f is
off a bit. Is it possible to make f the same as d? The difference at d the
'," is single byte while at f the "o" is double byte.
Thank you for your help.Ming.
I've worked with multiple byte characters before (with difficulty), and I think
I could help. The way I dealt with them was to create a list of characters to
recognize. (For reference:
http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg68583/example_%284%29.ly)
The method isn't pretty**
In order for me to help, though, I'll need to see the file that created your
image. What are the UTF-8 encodings of the special punctuation characters?
**At one point, I was referred to the functions documented at
http://www.gnu.org/software/guile-gnome/docs/glib/html/Unicode-Manipulation.html#Unicode-Manipulation,
which look like they would ease working with such characters. However, I was
never able to figure out how to get these functions available to LilyPond.
Does anyone reading this know how it would be done?
Thanks,David
