Title How do I get foreign font characters?
Ref. No. QNX.000003191
Category(ies) Development
Issue We need to use a font that is larger than the one we currently use.  The best fit is the pcterm 24 bold; but this font does not contain the German umlaut or the French accent characters. Does a version of this font exist that contains these characters?  If it does not exist, how can we alter the font or with whom should contract to get these characters added? Alternatively, is there another font with the same character height and width as the pcterm 24 bold?
Solution You can use the pcterm font, but put swiss in the extension table so it gets used for german characters.
