Need help on CJK fonts

Post by masterfu678 »

First of all, I'd like to suggest that CJK languages fonts to be supported by default in future Wine builds, because getting this to work manually is a headache.

ok, so what I am trying to do now is to fix the boxes and corrupted CJK texts in some applications. I want to play Touhou Project, I know it is a japanese game but I have the chinese translated version, and neither the original Japanese version or the Chinese version displays the in game text correctly. Plus, if I have CJK characters in file path, the application simply won't run at all.

I did some googling around and found a way to create a registry file that replaces some text to chinese fonts, which partially fixed some texts in game.

I know about the LANG=ja stuff in terminal, but I know that there is a better way, a permanent solution that will make the text display correctly without going through the terminal everytime you want to run a CJK program.

I also followed this article to install the missing fonts, however, I cannot download the registry file on there because sendspace doesn't have it anymore, if you guys know what it is, tell me.

There's no need to go through the terminal every time. Just add the LANG variable to the command in the menu link.

Use whatever menu editor your desktop environment provides.
