 Posted: Sat May 17, 2008 11:27 am Post subject: acroread menus & interface are all little squares |
 |
|
I did a new install of gentoo recently. Since I occasionally like to type Chinese I tried setting my locales at the beginning of the install. Although it's changed slightly since then, this is what I have for /etc/locale.gen:
| Code: | en_US ISO-8859-1
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
zh_CN.UTF-8 UTF-8
zh_TW.UTF-8 UTF-8
zh_CN GB2312
|
and
| Code: |
# locale -a
C
en_US
en_US.utf8
POSIX
zh_CN
zh_CN.utf8
zh_TW.utf8
|
I don't know if this is relevant but I also have this line in my make.conf:
Anyhow, my acroread interface (all the menus, etc) are little squared instead of letters. I somehow suspect my attempt at making a Chinese-friendly system. It's frustrating because I can't read any of the menus and if I want to save a file the save as... dialog and all the filenames it lists are also little squares, making it impossible to navigate.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? It's only in acroread so far that I've seen. |

I believe I already installed Chinese fonts, and I just installed the one you suggested above. I also reinstalled acroread just incase. Still got little squares...  |

Just emerge the font is not enough. Issue the following command in your root terminal
| Code: |
cd /etc/fonts/conf.d
ln -sfv ../conf.avail/85-wqy-bitmapsong.conf ./
|
restart your X, that will be done.
[/code] Can you speak chinese? My english is not good. |

You can type Chinese if you prefer, it will be good practice for me.  |

能把你当前使用的locale贴出来吗?使用哪种DE/WM?(gnome/kde/fvwm/)用firefox浏览中文网页是中文是否能正常显示?USE FLAG中是否开启了cjk?
acroread界面乱码可能因为Linguas中定义了zh_CN,如果您无须阅读中文pdf文档可以尝试使用LINGUAS="en" emerge acroread.

Post your /etc/env.d/02locale and emerge --info
Which wm are you using? gnome or kde? |

sorry for the huge delay in replying. To answer:
I am using xfce4. I use seamonkey (but acroread has little squares even when launched by itself). I enabled the CJK USE flag. Chinese sometimes displays normally, sometimes, as in your post above, some characters display in a different font. For example "chang2 shi4" displays in a strange almost italic looking font, whereas "shi3 yong4" displays normally.
Here's my emerge --info:

I recall slowly removing anything Chinese to see if that would help. It didn't.
Thanks for any suggestions! |

I'd like to know which Chinese font is used when seamonky is running and your personal fontconfig settings.
| Code: |
$cat "/proc/$(ps -A | grep seamonkey | awk '{print $1}')/maps" | grep fonts

As you can see, wqy-bitmapsong/wqy-zenhei is used to display Chinese characters on my seamonkey session, I have no special settings for seamonkey.
PS:
1. Enable cjk and unicode USE FLAGs.
2. Have some high quality (and free) Chinese fonts and appropriate fontconfig settings
3. Enable freetype font engine in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
4 And finally my favorite Chinese Input method.
That's all for me to have a working Chinese Linux/Freebsd box. |

Looks like I don't have zenhei and am emerging now. But originally my post was about acroread menus displaying all little squares, not seamonkey...? |

If you can read chinese, please have a look at this Howto.
http://zh.gentoo-wiki.com/index.php?title=HOWTO_%E8%AE%BE%E5%AE%9A%E5%AD%97%E4%BD%93&variant=zh-cn
您的GTK程序似乎并沒有按照85-wqy-bitmapsong.conf 指定的順序，做相应的字体替换规则，（否则程序都会使用为wqy-bitmapsong，来显示汉字，效果会非常的好.而不是arphicfonts/kochi-substitute）就这一点来说是相当奇怪的。有没有自定义的字体设置文件比如说/etc/fonts/local.conf或者~/.fontconfig ?
（据我所知acroread也是gtk+2程序，我个人并不使用它，而是用xpdf或者evince作为替代，我会尝试安装acroread和您的locale设置）。
如果您有时间，可以登录irc.freenode.net上的#gentoo-cn频道，相信在那里您会得到更多的帮助. |
