- Reading over Unicode sections of the on-line-help, though there seems
- to be good support for 2byte-wide strings in NT, there is not much written
- about output of Unicode text.
-
- -Does textout continue to expect 1 byte strings? (looks like it)
- -There is no function that knows how to deal with a multi-lingual string.
- The solution being to cut up the Unicode string into sub-strings and
- performing appropriate textout with appropriate fonts.
-
- -How are fonts related to languages etc... How do I ask "do we have
- a spanish font installed?"
-
-
- thanks,
