In Central and Eastern European language environments such as Greek and Czech, you may have to modify font.properties files in order to display all national language characters correctly on the screen. Several font.properties files are bundled with the Java 2 SDK. You can find these files in the directory ../lib, which is located beneath the directory where Java is installed.
For more information, please refer to the technote titled "Editing font.properties files in Host On-Demand," which is available on the Host On-Demand support page at http://www.ibm.com/software/webservers/hostondemand/support.html under Hints and Tips.
The following problems have been encountered with Host On-Demand running in the environment of a European language:
When you copy the Euro dollar symbol to the clipboard, it may display incorrectly because the proper fonts are not installed. You must install new operating system fonts to display new symbols, such as the Euro dollar.
With Netscape 4, it is not possible to display correctly the characters of some European languages, such as Turkish, Russian, Hungarian, Polish, Slovenian, Czech or Greek. This is because of a deficiency in the JVM.
To solve this problem, sample font-properties files are provided in the
C:\Program Files\IBM\HostOnDemand\HOD\samples\fonts\win32
directory; you should copy the appropriate files into your netscape\communicator\program\java\classes
directory (after packing up the original files).
