I was digging through the fonts.dir that the CLE (Chinese GNU/Linux Extension Project) use, and found a slightly different version. I have made some slight modification (to capitalize the font names so they look better. :-) I have attached it here as an .tar.bz2 archive. I prefer CLE's fonts.dir over the ones that ha shao suggested, although I am pretty sure that we may need to tweak those CLE fonts.dir even further, when the details of Ghostscript-CJK and fonts are finalized. To Debian JP and Debian-KR developers, since AbiWord supports CJK starting with 0.7.12, you may be interested in getting this to work with Japanese and Korean too. AFAIK, you will need to add these files: /usr/share/abisuite/AbiWord/strings/ja /usr/share/abisuite/fonts/ja/fonts.dir /usr/share/abisuite/AbiWord/strings/ko /usr/share/abisuite/fonts/ko/fonts.dir and then AbiWord would fully support Japanese and Korean too. (I hope. :-) Yes, after adding the Chinese fonts.dir, AbiWord-0.7.13 in Debian is a full Chinese word processor! I was really impressed! Aaron, I am too lazy to download and unpack the AbiWord source to provide a diff, but perhaps you could do something like this? :-) cd abiword-0.7.13/debian tar xvjf AbiWord_zh-fonts-dir.tar.bz2 mv zh-CN/fonts.dir fonts.dir.zh-CN mv zh-TW/fonts.dir fonts.dir.zh-TW so you end up with debian/fonts.dir.zh-CN and debian/fonts.dir.zh-TW. Now, edit debian/rules, and in the "install:" target, add: for i in zh-CN zh-TW; do \ install -m 755 -d debian/tmp/usr/share/abisuite/fonts/$$i; \ install -m 755 debian/fonts.dir.$$i debian/tmp/usr/share/abisuite/fonts/$$i/fonts.dir; \ done Something like that? I haven't tested it yet. :-) And of course, in the future, "ja" and "ko" and perhaps other locales could be added too. Oh, BTW, just a sidenote: You may want to remove the "-s" option from this line: install -s -m 755 $(TMP_DIR)/bin/AbiWord_d debian/tmp/usr/bin/ because dh_strip will eventually strip all the binaries. :-) (And dh_strip runs with some extra option that might strip the binary better? Not sure.)
