Description of problem: I bet it doesn’t do UTF-8 The above text does not show up properly in konsole with limited default fonts installed. Seems installing VLGothic-fonts fixes the issue with konsole, however both xterm and gnome-terminal display the above text properly without VLGothic-fonts installed.
for some reason ™ does not show up in konsole, but shows up fine with gnome-terminal and xterm.
The characters 〈 and 〉 do not show up in konsole either.
I can confirm that I have the same problem with konsole on F7 (kdebase-3.5.6-12.fc7) but I think that this issue isn't related to VLGothic-fonts (20070328-1.fc7 installed here), because, anyway, I have the same problem.
Than, any ideas here? I'm at a complete loss.
could you please attach the text file or tell me how i cann reproduce this problem? Thanks
All you have to do in order to reproduce it is simply copy & paste the text in comments above into a konsole....
i cannot reproduce this problem on my test machine. It works fine for me. Here's the screenshot. It seems either font setting problem or missing fonts. There's a list of font packages installed on my test machine: pm -qa | grep font xorg-x11-font-utils-7.1-5.fc7 libfontenc-devel-1.0.4-2.fc7 urw-fonts-2.3-6.1.1 xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi-7.1-3.fc7 libXfontcache-devel-1.0.4-1.fc7 libXfont-1.2.8-1.fc7 xorg-x11-fonts-Type1-7.1-3.fc7 libXfontcache-1.0.4-1.fc7 chkfontpath-1.10.1-1.1 xorg-x11-fonts-truetype-7.1-3.fc7 xorg-x11-fonts-misc-7.1-3.fc7 tetex-fonts-3.0-39.fc7 fontconfig-devel-2.4.2-3.fc7 libfontenc-1.0.4-2.fc7 ghostscript-fonts-5.50-16.fc7 fontconfig-2.4.2-3.fc7 fonts-japanese-0.20061016-6.fc7 xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi-7.1-3.fc7 xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi-7.1-3.fc7 bitmap-fonts-0.3-5.1.2.fc7 dejavu-lgc-fonts-2.15-1 xorg-x11-fonts-base-7.1-3.fc7 libXfont-devel-1.2.8-1.fc7 xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi-7.1-3.fc7 could you please install missing font packages and try again? Thanks

Remove fonts-japanese and test again. You will see that it does not work in konsole and does work with gnome-terminal and xterm after you remove the japanese fonts.
NOTE: The characters mentioned in comments #2 and #3 will not work in konsole regardless of japanese (or VLGothic) fonts installed. These characters work fine in xterm and gnome-terminal.
Er, that should be comments #1 and #2, (not 2&3).
it's a font rendering issue in qt. reassign to correct component
획 기 적 인 ^^ This text fails for me in firefox, gnome-terminal and konsole. However displays fine with xterm.
Is this still happening? I just see a bunch of ?'s in the description and comments above. Could you attach the text that is not displaying as utf-8 file?
Created attachment 216481 [details] Example Characters that do not show up in Konsole This attachment shows some sample characters which display perfectly within gnome-terminal and xterm, but which do not show up properly using konsole.
I think more information is needed: like your locale and list of fonts installed.
Does it still happen for you with kde4/qt4?

The konsole could display the above text. However, firefox has problem on displaying the first text. When I highlighted such text, it could be displayed instead. kde-filesystem-4-8.fc9.noarch kde-settings-kdm-4.0-11.fc9.noarch kde-l10n-Chinese-4.0.2-1.fc9.noarch kde-i18n-Chinese-Big5-3.5.9-4.fc9.noarch kde-i18n-Chinese-3.5.9-4.fc9.noarch kde-settings-4.0-11.fc9.noarch kde-settings-pulseaudio-4.0-11.fc9.noarch kde-l10n-Chinese-Traditional-4.0.2-1.fc9.noarch qt-3.3.8b-5.fc9.i386 qt4-x11-4.3.4-3.fc9.i386 qt4-4.3.4-3.fc9.i386
i cannot reproduce this problem in current rawhide anymore with or without fonts-japanese
