[rt-users] RT & Chinese Characters?

[Brian Thompson]

Jesse,

What do you mean by "using fonts without traditional glyphs in them"?  What we're seeing are square boxes in place of some of the characters.  Would that be a symptom of the font issue?  Can you please point us to an example of a Traditional Chinese font that *should* work with RT so we can test?  Is the test suite available to the public or just Best Practical customers?

Thank you!,

Brian

RT should be working just fine with Traditional Chinese.  Heck, I believe there are specific tests for it in our test suite.  The most typical failure mode I can think of would be "using fonts without traditional glyphs in them"
