Arial Narrow supports both Latin and Cyrillic characters.
The version of Friz Quadrata loaded in English clients only supports Latin characters, while the version loaded in Russian clients only supports Cyrillic.
The Friz Quadrata lookalikes used by Korean and Chinese clients support both, so if you like the look of Friz Quadrata, you might look into those:
Code:
2002.ttf 2002
2002B.ttf 2002 Bold
ARHei.ttf AR CrystalzcuheiGBK Demibold
ARKai_C.ttf AR ZhongkaiGBK Medium (Combat)
ARKai_T.ttf AR ZhongkaiGBK Medium
(Remember, every client includes the font files for every locale, even if it doesn't load them.) |
Okay, so just like i tought, since i use the inhertited text with xml, i need to create a custom template for the font i want to use which supports all characters? And why is it shows the enable button text and the dropdown label text correctly, but not the dropdown menus? Also any1 could show me a Custom xml font template?
Also if i like get the Friz Quadrata Cyrillic version is it gonna show Latin characters properly?
