I really only have experience with iiimf. Well, I guess i18n-faq is for general questions like: - language selection and locale - display rendering/printing etc.. iiimf-faq probably is for input with IIIMF Feel free to suggest and Q&A for anything. It is just matter of sorting into different pages.

If you don't install Japanese language support when you install Fedora, you have to install package kde-i18n-japanese. Next, in kcontrol, choose "Japan" for the country...you can still add "English" or other languages and move them to the top so that your user interface is not in Japanese if you prefer. You can manually change the currency, date and number formats too. Also, I couldn't get Japanese conversion to work unless I installed the package Canna, though I thought iiimf-le-canna was the replacement for Canna. Anyway, I'll write it up more formally in the FAQ. -m On Sun, 2004-12-05 at 17:32 -0500, morpheus wrote: > I think my problem is that I didn't install Japanese when I installed > Fedora, I only installed English.

The easiest thing is to look at comps.xml in the "Japanese Support" section where you're find a list of the packages that are usually installed for Japanese, and then install those: you probably don't need all of them but installing all shouldn't cause any problems.

Message-ID: <200412090304.iB9340Fh012999@sarathi.ncst.ernet.in> Hello Friends, A few years back I made a console font for 'Hindi' in PSF format. At that time Linux distributions were not fully translated for Hindi. But now when I saw 'Fedora Core 3' I felt a necessity for the Hindi console font and thus I want to know about someone to whom I should contact to incorporate my font in Fedora. If people are interested in console font for Hindi then I would like to continue the development of this font in the latest XPSF format which would make the text more readable. The existing font and its screenshot (taken from a virtual machine) are available at the following URL. http://staff.ncst.ernet.in/1/1/ashutosh/ashutosh/mycomputer/index.html#UTF-8_Linux Hope people will encourage me for further development of this font. Yours, Ashutosh Raghuwanshi. I believe in "The Intellectual Intelligence". _____________________________________________________________ Website - http://pragya.cjb.net E-mail(Technical) - ashutosh at pragya.cjb.net (Official) - ashutosh at ncst.ernet.in (Just 4 Fun) - ashutosh_raghu at indiatimes.com Yahoo Messenger - a_human_been PGP Public Key - http://pragya.cjb.net/redir.html?pgp F-Print: A44E E225 836F B468 BB49 694E 014F 0852 C05E F2E4 _____________________________________________________________ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Before, it was working fine, but now when I try to use iiimf in KDE apps (konsole, quanta, kedit) I get a system freeze and have to shut down my computer. iiimf is working fine in Gnome apps. How to Reproduce ----------------- 1. Open quanta 2. Press CTRL-SPACE 3. Type Japanese (like bennkyou= ?????) 4. Press SPACE to convert 5. You only can see the first kanji displayed, second is blank space (i.e. ?) 6. quanta app is now frozen and will not respond to any keyboard input. You cannot turn off iiimf by pressing CTRL-SPACE again. Also, HOME, Backspace, ESC, CTRL-C, etc. do nothing. 7. Next go to any other open KDE app (like konsole). Even if you are not using IIIMF and just try to type English, you can only type one character then the app freezes. 8. From now on all KDE apps are frozen and you must reboot. 9. If you press CTRL-ALT-F1 to try to log on to a text console, the system will freeze. This bug can be reproduced using the above steps 100% of the time. In /var/log/messages, I get the following errors: Dec 21 00:20:19 enormousroom htt_server[2719]: status has not been enabled yet.

It's in trunk on svn.openi18n.org, so you can check out the source by typing $ svn co http://svn.openi18n.org:8081/repos/im-sdk/trunk im-sdk IIIMQCF is still in development state(currently only preedit works), and you also need the immodule enabled qt to use IIIMQCF. I guess they are both good targets for FC4 as the default setting for KDE environment. -- hiura@{freestandards.org,OpenI18N.org,li18nux.org,unicode.org,sun.com} Chair, OpenI18N.org/The Free Standards Group http://www.OpenI18N.org Architect/Sr. Staff Engineer, Sun Microsystems, Inc, USA eFAX: 207-433-8964 From ashutosh at ncst.ernet.in Wed Dec 22 15:43:13 2004 From: ashutosh at ncst.ernet.in (Ashutosh Raghuwanshi) Date: Wed, 22 Dec 2004 21:13:13 +0530 Subject: [Fwd: [Fwd: [Fedora-i18n-list] Hindi console font.]] In-Reply-To: <41C6BE51.8080103@redhat.com> Message-ID: <200412221543.iBMFhDwZ016407@sarathi.ncst.ernet.in> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Friends, I don't know what more info you need. But if you really want this project to go forward then try to include the existing fonts in future releases of Linux and then wait for the XPSF format to complete so that we can use it for better presentation of Hindi fonts. I think people here at NCST are also interested in this project so in that case we will also get the bitmaps of the glyphs of other Indian languages and thus it would be possible to make console fonts for those languages too. Yours, Ashutosh Raghuwanshi.

If this caused problems for Thai printing, this is an unfortunate side effect. I wonder if running in PANGO mode would make a difference here. Anyone else have any thoughts?
