Description: "AR PL ShanHeiSun Uni" Chinese Unicode TrueType font by Arphic Technology,
modified by Arne Goetje.
"AR PL ShanHeiSun Uni" is a high-quality Chinese Unicode TrueType font
(uming.ttf) derieved from the original "AR PL Mingti2L Big5" and
"AR PL SungtiL GB" fonts generously provided by Arphic Technology
to the Free Software community under the "Arphic Public License".
.
It has been extended from the original "AR PL Mingti2L Big5" and
"AR PL SungtiL GB" fonts with additional glyphs now covering
ISO8859-1,2,3,4,7,9,10,13,14,15, BIG5 and GB2312-80.
It also includes Bopomofo Extensions for Hakka and Minnan according
to the Unicode 4.0 standard. MBE variants of those glyphs are also
included.
Support for HKSCS, CNS 11643, GB 18030, Japanese and Korean is under heavy
development.
.
This font is an alternative to the ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp and
ttf-arphic-gbsn00lp font packages.
.
If you use X Window System, be sure to install the "x-ttcidfont-conf"
package so you can use this font in X.

_Choices: Unicode, MBE, Both
Default: Unicode
_Description: Font variant to install:
This font contains bopomofo extended glyphs, which are used to annotate
Chinese glyphs to show how the characters should be pronounced. These
bopomofo extended glyphs are used for some minority languages, like
Taiwanese and Hakka. They are mainly used in Taiwan.
.
There are two variants of these bopomofo extended glyphs in use, one which
conforms to the Unicode standard, and one, called Modern Bopomofo
Extensions (MBE), which aims to be easier to read and write.
.
The Unicode variant also contains the MBE variants encoded as TTF
stylistic alternatives (SALT). As only few programs can support this
feature, users who prefer to use the MBE glyphs should install the MBE
variant. More information on this can be found on the project homepage:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fCJKUnifonts
.
If in doubt, please select "Unicode".
CJK Unicode font Ming style
===========================
This font was taken from the from the TrueType fonts generously released by
Arphic Technologies Taiwan under the Arphic Public License.
It was modified with Fontforge by Arne Goetje <arne@linux.org.tw> to contain
both Big5 and GB2312 charsets plus some european characters.
Currently it fully supports the following charsets:
ISO8859-1,2,3,4,7,9,10,13,14,15
Big5
GB2312-80
Bopomofo Extensions for Hakka, Minnan (Unicode 4.0) and MBE variants using
the Stylistic Alternatives (salt) feature from the OTF spec.
Partly support is implemented for:
HKSCS
CNS 11643
GB18030
Japanese
Korean
This font is under development, new glyphs for the partly supported charsets
are constantly added.
This package contains now both variants, Unicode and MBE. However, only the
Unicode variant is provided as a TTF. In most cases you just need the Unicode
variant. If you want to install the MBE variant, you need to use xdelta 1.1.3
to patch the TTF.
xdelta patch uming2mbe.xdelta uming.ttf umingmbe.ttf
Xdelta is available on http://www.xdelta.org or for Windows users on
http://www.eng.uwaterloo.ca/~ejones/software/xdelta-win32.html
IMPORTANT: Only use version 1.1.3, not newer ones, they won't work!
