Hello all
 
I`m pretty new in this world, and I was testing EB on the MC3190 Scanner with WINCE 6.0.
 
but i cannot use Chinese font in EB, i mean when i try to display some chinese characters, it shows nothing
 
I followed the instructions here, trying to modify the Config.xml file to load the correct font file.
 

 
and here is the link: Config.XML Reference
 
 
 
but it seems not working for me:(
 
appreciate for any suggestions
 
Thank you all guys !

Hello all

just in case someone run into the same problem like me

I have found the solution for this issue, here it is:

download the font "DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf" 

put into the Windows folder

modify the config file of EB like below:

and everything will goes fine!

the fontDirectory will be file://\Windows

it`s a little confusing refer to the knowledge base articles

and thank you Tsubeng for your suggestion

Hi Johnny,

Thanks a lot for your update,
With Chinese OS, the native font option should works.
I believed it will be solved in the next EB Released probably EB v1.5.

Would you mind to attached the DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf file/share the download link in this discussion as well?It maybe useful for other to refer.

Thank you again!

Did you test with the latest EB v1.4:

If the issue still persist in EBv1.4, I would advice you to contact your local Zebra Support Team to get the fix.
Thanks.
