Freemind with UMing font

Description of problem:
When using uming font in java application, only upper half the characters are displayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cjkuni-uming-fonts-0.2.20080216.1-37.fc13.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. We use freemind for example.
2. Download freemind zip and install it, say, in /tmp/freemind
3. cd /tmp/freemind; chmod 755 freemind.sh; ./freemind.sh
4. In F-13, java is not able to show Chinese, because the font name and path changes. Suppose we use java-1.6.0-openjdk.
5. su or sudo as root
6. cd /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0/jre/lib
7. cp fontconfig.Fedora.properties.src fontconfig.Fedora.properties
8. Either manually search/replace AR PL ShanHeiSong to AR PL UMing HK fontconfig.Fedora.properties; or use attached fontconfig.Fedora.properties
9. Start freemind to see the how font is displayed
  
Actual results:
UMing characters are cut in to half. See Screenshot-uming.png

Expected results:
UMing characters are displayed as whole.

Additional info:
UKai seems act normally. See Screenshot-ukai.png

How did you get the Chinese text to show up on freemind instead of English? 

I downloaded and installed freemind 0.8.1 from http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Download

I downloaded the full binary file.

Thanks,

Also what did you set as the system language?

Thanks,

Comment 3 Ding-Yi Chen 2010-06-17 05:29:58 UTC

In bash/zsh

export LANG=zh_TW.utf8

In tcsh

setenv LANG zh_TW.utf8

Comment 4 man lung wong 2010-06-17 14:20:16 UTC

Hmm.... the Chinese characters seem to be showing up as boxes. Would you by any chance know the reason behind that?

FWIW, I also tested on my f11 system, the problem doesn't exist there.

Thanks,

Comment 5 man lung wong 2010-06-17 14:25:50 UTC

By the problem I mean, the Chinese characters show up in Uming and do not get cut in half.

Comment 6 Ding-Yi Chen 2010-06-17 23:26:16 UTC

Mmm, I tested it today with F-13 and F-12, seems like this problem have been somehow fixed. 

I've checked /var/log/yum.log, maybe it's one of the java-1.6.0-openjdk update that eliminate this bug, though I am not certain.

You may close this bug now.
