@Arial unicode MS not correctly supported

[silver]

Hi,

To categorize my directory I use 1) xxxxx 2) xxxxx as prefix. When using the Arial unicode font (just looks very nice) a huge space is created after the ')' sign. Using an underscore character results in a very long underscore. Maybe a unicode support issue?

Best regards,

Frank

Hello ! Welcome aboard !

• What about use the Search here prior… ?

- Unicode is not fully suported yet. This is planned for TC 7.5 or 8.0, a huge work and the priority change…

 Kind regards

I don't think that it has to do anything with Unicode, but with how these characters are define in Arial Unicode. The space and underscore probably match the width of the Chinese/Japanese ideograms. Just look at the font in charmap.exe.

Clo,
I guess the point is that it does not matter.

That could be. When using explorer or any other program, the char-width is OK though.

I'm just calling the Windows functions (TextOut, TabbedTextOut etc) to draw the text, nothing special...

Try using "Arial unicode MS" instead of "@Arial unicode MS". The fonts with the "@" sign at the beginning are meant to write vertical text (top to bottom), e.g. for Chinese or Japanese documents. The font without the "@" is meant for left to right (and right to left) text.
