XTT server has to be setup right 4. WNN can be used to type Japanese[kanji too] Basically everything in FreeBSD can be in Japanese [Even KDE has a Japanese port if you do not know] Please look at the /usr/ports/japanese stuff for more info www.jp.freebsd.org has extensive materials that you need [I also use apsfilter] Japanese has the best support in FreeBSD of all languages Simply look at how many ports there are in /japanese Have you tried the Japanese FreeBSD mailing lists? :) P.S. Your question belongs in questions@freebsd.org please do not crosspost to 3 or 4 mailing list =) -- Michael Chin-Yuan Wu 鉛刀貴一割﹐夢想聘良圖。 Strive for the very best, the outcome is not important.

Along : the way I've been working on the Japanese-capability of my home PC here. : : I've figured out ways to send/receive Japanese-encoded email, and I can : even view Japanese text files. The nut I have not been able to crack, : under any terms, is how to *print* Japanese to my non-Japanese printer. I : have an HP Laserjet 5L, which I believe is a PCL printer, so I use : apsfilter to talk to it. For all non-J sorts of things, this works fine. : : I can't figure out what combination of things has to happen to print Kanji : to this printer. I've wandered aimlessly through the ports tree, even : submitted a PR or two. But I can't print! Can anybody toss a suggestion : my way? : : : Thanks, : : Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
