Further info: How to set Chinese characters

["Mullin Yu" <mullin yu softwareag com>]

Hi all,

Regarding my previous post, I changed the rc file content to the following:

style "default" {
    font_name="Sans Italic 10"
}
class "GtkWidget" style "default"

The fonts of  the controls, include the GtkEntry, botton, labels had been
changed successfully. I saw that "Sans Italic 10" should be the Pango font
name regarding to GTK Reference API.

Then,

1. What's the name of the Chinese font in Pango?
2. Also, I guessed the font name and replace "Sans" to "Mingliu", but an
error message said "No font found". I suspect where will Pango find the
font? Is it from the dll of lib directory under Pango? If yes, can I use the
Windows fonts. If not, I may have some additional fonts, how can I change
Windows font to Pango font? Is it a dll?

Thanks!

Best regards,
Mullin
