I don't know how to install localized fonts with IE. I got mine
installed by installing extra language packs in the Win2000 Regional
Options control panel.
Maybe Troy recalls how he got Chinese support installed on Windows 98.

I cannot get either machine at home to display Chinese text, and I don't
know why. I think it has something to do with the SimSun.ttf font. The
machines I can get it to work on at work have IE 5.5 0r 6 on them with
the Language AutoSelection installed and the SimSun.ttf font installed,
that much I know. Code2000 doesn't seem to work either. I thought the
IESetup program was supposed to install the SimSun.ttf font but I am
noticing that it doesn't. How did my machines at work get the font in
the first place?
Anyway I plan on taking the font home to see if that does the trick. If
so Chris can you tell me what options in the IE Setup program install
the SimSun font? I choose all the Chinese fonts when I installed IE is
it somewhere else?
In Christ,
David
