How To Display IE Unicode Language Add-ons Under Windows 95

MORE INFORMATION

The fonts installed by Internet Explorer add-ons are Unicode fonts. If the system is already installed with the proper Internet Explorer add-ons, applications can use these Unicode fonts to display the Far East language characters.

To do this, use the TextOutW() function to display Unicode characters. Following is an example for Simplified Chinese characters:

   strcpy(lf.lfFaceName, "KaiTi_GB2312");
   lf.lfCharSet = GB2312_CHARSET;
   lf.lfHeight = 16;
   hfont = CreateFontIndirect(&lf);
   TextOutW(hdc, 10,10, UStr , 2);
				

If you need to use the Traditional Chinese character set in your application, the font and character set name and the code point should be changed accordingly (GB2312_CHARSET -> CHINESEBIG5_CHARSET). Make sure you select the correct font into your DC when wm_paint time.
