Unicode Application Question

[Rob]

Hello,

We are in the process of writing an application that is unicode
compliant. The question that I have is what unicode font should be
used for all of our forms? Currently we are using Arial Unicode but we
have come across instances where users don't have this font. Is there
a unicode font gauranteed to be included with Windows XP or can this
font be distributed with our application?

Thanks,

Rob,

I don't know the answer, but should you not tell which culture versions of
XP.

I assume that the fonts on Chinese XP systems are not the same as on French
systems.

Cor,

Thanks for the reply. The problem we have is our application allows
for many languages, meaning somebody in the U.S. can have English,
German, Chineses, Greek, etc ... on their screen. The problem is
solved if I can gaurantee Arial Unicode (or an equivalent) is on their
system.

I am very surprized that nobody else has this issue.

Cheers,
Rob
