- It is not just a matter of putting in the Icelandic fonts, since those
- 3 fonts you mentioned are located in ROM (brilliant eh?) you need
- a resource or two inside the system file itself to tell it that it should
- not use the fonts located in ROM (now why doesnt it figure that one out
- itself?).
-
- Anyway, even if you had the Icelandic fonts working, the sorting order
- would still be wrong and fonts would not be printed properly if you used
- a word processor to right align text. That is if text is justified
- on both sides your document would print quite like such. There would be
- some mistakes in the justification.

- I suggest you get the whole icelandic system and then replace menu
- and string resources. That's an easier way to have an icelandic system with
- an english front.
