Greetings all,
I use Debian lenny and I can see Japanese character in my browser,email client (IceDove) and also can type them in Terminal without any problem.
In the Swing application I am working on now ,I want to use Japanese characters.When I try following ,all I see is squares instead of characters:
javax.swing.JTextArea text = new javax.swing.JTextArea();
text.setFont(new Font("Bitstream Cyberbit", Font.PLAIN, 20));
text.setText("\u4eca\u65e5\u306f");
Do I specifically have to set the font in order to display Japanese characters?
Why wouldn't Swing display Japanese characters even though they are installed properly?
Thanks in advance,
Umanga
