				Foreign Characters & Fonts Vietnamese
			 
			
			Ok, I've manage to embed and read several "other" foreign characters and fonts. Usually I follow these embedding instructions:TXT.rtf But now I'm having a hellofa time getting this to work: vpstest.epub It's Unicode UTF-8 etc. I've added some code to try and make it work. The font is called: VPS Times The font looks like: Ba nghiåp l°ng thanh tŒnh And should have accent marks etc. I've also used TransType Pro to convert the font to a TTF, but I could also convert it to a OTF if it would help. IDEAS?

			Can somebody PLEASE respond. My 'so-called' fix. Didn't fix crap. Anybody??? It actually display's correctly in ADE, but not: iPad (ibooks), Nook Touch (non HD), Kindle Fire. Last edited by uieluck; 03-19-2013 at 05:39 PM. |

			Actually, it could be a TTF as well.
