KGSIssue Asian Fonts/ Discussion

Sub-page of KGSIssueAsianFonts

Chris Hayashida: This page is a mess. I think we need to edit it. I suggest the following heading:

  • Windows 9x/Me
  • Java 1.4 and earlier
  • Java 1.5
  • Windows 2000/XP
  • Java 1.4 and earlier
  • Java 1.5
  • Mac OS X
  • I don't know if only OS X supports Java. I'll leave this section to someone more qualified.
  • Linux
  • Java 1.4 and earlier
  • Java 1.5

There's a change in how Java configures its fonts between 1.4 and 1.5. I'm not exactly sure when the changes were made, as I didn't use many of the later 1.4 builds, but I would assume it changed along with the version number.

I haven't installed Java on Linux in a while, so I might leave that to someone else as well. I'm not sure if we should split Linux into several distros (i.e., instructions for Red Hat, Debian, Ubuntu, etc.)

What do you think?
