This occurs with PDF, SONY, and EPUB formats on my Sony PRS 505 with chinese flash mod, Acrobat 9.0 in Windows XP with Eastern Fonts, HTC Touch with NLS mod and MingLui font.

The following example of feeds should reproduce this problem:

Yahoo! 新聞
http://www.feedbooks.com/newspaper/112
defined with EN language

LinuxTOY
http://www.feedbooks.com/newspaper/1378
defined with ZH language

Is this problem just me? Have I installed the wrong fonts?
I am able to get other Chinese documents to work.

I got the same kind of problems with my Chinese ePub. It looks like only embedded ePub can be supported in PRS 600. Please correct me if I am worng.

The problem with Sony PRS 600, as I know it, is that, even my default font has been changed to Chinese fonts, it still cannot display Chinest text in ePub; it can display Table of Contents in Chinese.

This may indicate that the PRS 600 is set to embedded font; and default font will not be used.
