By the way, which of the three fonts is normally used by Chinese readers? Are most books written using Simplified or TraditionalChinese?
There is enough space in firmware for a single 1.5-2Mb-ish traditional Chinese font. This one, for example:

From wikipedia:
Quote:
Simplified Chinese Characters (simplified Chinese: 简体字; traditional Chinese: 簡體字; pinyin: Jiǎntizì) are one of two standard sets of Chinese characters of the contemporary Chinese written language. The government of the People's Republic of China has promoted them for use in printing in an attempt to increase literacy. They are officially used in the People's Republic of China (Mainland China) and Singapore.
Traditional Chinese is currently used in the Republic of China or Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. Overseas Chinese communities generally use traditional characters, but simplified characters are often used among mainland Chinese immigrants.

As described, some people use Simplified Chinese, some use Traditional Chinese. These two language can be convert from each other. Due to the population, I think more users use Simplified Chinese.
I use two chinese fonts: tt0003m and tt0011m. The size of the two fonts I used is more about 16MB
The Droid Sans from Android is compact and supports CJK (The Droid Sans regular font also includes support for Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean support for the GB2312, Big 5, JIS 0208 and KSC 5601 character sets respectively), but is to big (about 3M) to fit in the firmware.
Anyway, have a default chinese font is better than none. I think the font you metion is ok, and I will ask other users if they have better suggestion.
