How do you configure Firefox to display non-English fonts? I'm
interested in Korean fonts, but the info is also relevant for Chinese or
Japanese fonts.
1. I have English Firefox. When displaying Korean characters in
webpage, it simply displays square box with hex numbers. When I go
to
Edit | Preferences | Fonts&Colors | Korean
I'm given options of 'serif', 'san-serif', etc. which are the same
selection for 'Western' case.
Netscape-7.1 can display Korean characters. And, I'm given proper
font selection (ie. daewoo-...) when I go under 'Fonts&Colors'
menus.
2. I installed Korean language version of Firefox. Here, all menus
are in Korean. But, all I see is, again, square boxes with hex
numbers.
Is there anyone here who has successfully configured Firefox to work
with Chinese/Japanese/Korean language? I don't think you need special
language version just to see the characters on screen. For inputing,
you probably need a language version.
