    In case you want to test your GB18030 font, you can use Netscape 7 (or lateset Mozilla) and then visit my GB18030 test pages at
    http://people.netscape.com/ftang/testscript/gb18030/gb18030.cgi?page=10

    It should be page to page compatable to the paper copy of GB18030-2000 standard. I also create "pseudo page" after page 284 for surrogate mapping. Page after 284 does not exist in the origional GB18030 standard.

    Have fun with http://people.netscape.com/ftang/testscript/gb18030/gb18030.cgi?page=597

    Eric,
    Amazin' Amazon!!  Now why didn't I think of that ?
    In fact the uk Amazon.co.uk say it is discontinued, so I would have to get it from Amazon in the US. It is not the first time that the two Amazon's fail to connect.
    Many thanks for the tip,
    Raymond
