Similarly, I've got a HelloWorld.java program that displays "Hello World" in English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. This file displays perfectly using Eclipse. Emacs displays the japanese characters without any problem. 4 of the 5 chinese characters are displayed properly, with the 5th showing as a box. All 8 korean characters show up as boxes. =20 FWIW, the strings show up properly in my mail reader (Claws-Mail). The strings are: zh: "____________" ja: "_____________________" ko: "____________ ______" Can anybody identfy what's wrong and point me toward a solution? Thanks. David
