Want to use Chinese name of font-family in css

#26466

When font-family in css file is coded with Chinese name, exception will come out.

Would you support that in future ?

I am afraid it is not going to be supported in the nearest future.

1. PD4ML uses a third-party CSS parser ss_css2.jar. We did minor patches of it, but a support of Chinese font names would require a significant refactoring.

2. PD4ML font subsystem currently works only with latin font names. We have plans to totally refactor it, but it will take some time until we begin.

FROM THE HOME PAGE:
“PD4ML Pro is Unicode© compatible to support most of Asian, Middle-East, European and Latin character sets; True Type and Open Type fonts. ”

you say that you just support Latin, but the home pages says different, its a little confusing, what do you support for fonts. arabic and japanese?
or is what you are saying onthe home page incorrect?

PD4ML does support Chinese, but it does not support chinese font names. For example it will work if you specify , but if you give chinese glyphs instead of “SimSun”, it will fail. The same is with Russian: – ok, – not.
