Chinese fonts?

The Asian language docs are copied from the CD to your \OnlineManuals
directory (C:\Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker7.2\OnlineManuals, for
example).

If you do have any Asian fonts installed, they should be registered
and show up in your Windows Character Map tool. And should be able to
be inserted into FM using the CM tool.

If not, if I were you and just needed a "few random characters," I
don't think I'd try to enable full support on the computer/OS/FM... I
think I'd see if I could find a few characters in a graphic
environment or www page and capture them as a graphic that could then
be imported...
