Bug description: unicode feature request...
there is a php4.0.0 japanese patch available... that you can use to patch the source and it will
allow you to use Japanese encoding (supposedly SJIS...) but sjis doesnt work... only EUC encoding
works... and there is a korean php script... that will allow you to use korean text ...
but these are all separate things that you have to do a million things to support...
is it possible... in a future release... you can get things like ImageTTFText to support Chinese,
Japanese, and Korean text? i use php and mysql... and i want to use it to display the results (if in
chinese or japanese) as an image... so everyone can see it...
i dont think this is very hard to implement at all... the resources for the japanese and korean are
available... and there are plently of places to look for information about cjk specs...
