Hello,
I have just installed Fedora Core 2 and am wondering how I can use Thai.
I had redhat 8.0 and had somehow managed to get that working so that I could type Thai and English in Openoffice documents and generally use Thai on the machine. Now, apparently the world has changed again.
Where can I read a how to make this work?
I have never really understood how fonts and languages work under X/Gnome anyway. It seems terribly confusing and there are no general references that I have come across. I tried for more than a year to get the mozilla/firefox/xprint browsers to print Thai with no luck. I now cannot even seem to get cups to print at all. At least LPRng did print English.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

Hi John,
We are not currently focused on supporting Thai *yet* so that is perhaps why it is no longer working, but a number of folks have written HOWTOs for adding Thai fonts etc on top of RHL/Fedora.
The main thing you need to do is add a font that covers the Thai language, which you can find references to here:

We are currently working on adding support for complex text languages (such as Thai) in our Gnome and Mozilla printing sub-systems, so would appreciate your feedback.
Regards, Paul
