Re: [bos-dev] implement Chinese?



What ttf file are you using?  The dejavu font should support all of Unicode which includes Chinese characters.

Thanks! Had to install another library, but then I could finally compile the program and process a font file. Problem is: It only works for the ASCII range, the rest is squares... (result attached - hope this is OK here?)

So, I suppose that Chinese will not be easily supported in BOS Wars?
