ChartDirector font problem with chinese/japanese/korean fonts

by Nishanth 12. May 2009 00:11

I was working on a web app which supported 20+ languages across the world. One report which we developed was using ChartDirector (http://www.advsofteng.com/gallery.html) in verdana font. After development we found that ChartDirector is not displaying chinese/japanese/korean characters. it was displaying  junk boxes instead. On Investigation, it was found that the issue was with  Verdana as Verdana does not support Unicode characters for japanese, chinese , korean etc. I searched in the net for a solution and found in the ChartDirector forum that the tech support of ChartDirector is advising people to use a font called "MingLiU" (which I don't think is free). I didn't like the idea of installing seperate fonts for each locale that we support. Just then I thought why don't we use a common unicode font which is available with Windows. This thought took me to "Arial Unicode MS" which is the best bet for displaying all unicode characters and it was free with Windows XP/ Windows 2003. I replaced verdana with "Arial Unicode MS" in the code and it worked perfectly!!!

sample code:     bc.xAxis().setLabelStyle("Arial Unicode MS", 9);

Hi Nishant,

Two weeks back I was facing the same problem in my web page when displaying the japanese character.

After googling I came to know that problem was with verdana font and your post helped me to justify that.

Thanks,
Vidhya.

From what we've seen, in the future, websites will matter much less and the collective reviews of friends matters much more. Gone are the days where corporate advertising causes the greatest influence. You're absolutely right  it makes things tough for advertisers but I really see this as a good thing because if you can properly harness social advertising, much greater results can be achieved with much less effort.

I use to be a die hard MySQL fan. I've even met Michael Widenius (good guy). Then it came time to do some work with GIS spatial relations. Even though it was allegedly possible in MySQL I spent days trying to get my shape files into it and just kept getting insert error after insert error even though I was following the tutorials to a tee.
