"AR PL ShanHeiSun Uni" Chinese Unicode TrueType font Mingti style

"AR PL ShanHeiSun Uni" is a high-quality Chinese Unicode TrueType font (uming.ttf) derieved from the original "AR PL Mingti2L Big5" and "AR PL SungtiL GB" fonts generously provided by Arphic Technology to the Free Software community under the "Arphic Public License".

It has been extended from the original "AR PL Mingti2L Big5" and "AR PL SungtiL GB" fonts with additional glyphs now covering ISO8859-1,2,3,4,9,10,13,14,15, BIG5, GB2312-80 and HKSCS 2004. It also includes Bopomofo Extensions for Hakka and Minnan according to the Unicode 4.1 standard. MBE variants of those glyphs are also included. Support for CNS 11643, GB 18030, Japanese and Korean is under heavy development. Users who need more Hanzi than provided by GB2312 and Big5 or who need support for Chinese minority languages may want to install this font package.

This font also includes Firefly's bitmap characters for better rendering in small fontsizes (Big5 and GB2312 only).

This font is an alternative to the ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp and ttf-arphic-gbsn00lp font packages.

If you use X Window System, be sure to install the "x-ttcidfont-conf" package so you can use this font in X.

If you need the MBE glyphs instead of the forms in Unicode for Taiwanese Bopomofo, you need to install the xdelta package and call dpkg-reconfigure on this package.
