102	DBCS fonts and font association	KO Myung-Hun		"Hi/2.

On DBCS OS/2, 2 special fonts are supported. They are 'WarpSans Combined' and 'Helv Combined' in 'PS55GUI.FDR'.

Fortunately, these two combined fonts are supported by Qt4 because I can see the text of menu of SMPlayer in Korean.

The font for menu text is 'Helv Combined'. But icon text and window text in Korean are not displayed. The font for them is 'WarpSans Combined'.

I know, Qt 4 does not support bitmap fonts. So 'WarpSans' is replaced with 'Workplace Sans' But 'Workplace Sans' does not include any DBCS glyphs. As a result, any Korean texts are not displayed at all.

So I think, you should not replace 'WarpSans' with 'Workplace Sans' if it is 'WarpSans Combined'.

In addition, DBCS OS/2 has a special feature. It is 'Font Association'. That is, if a specified font does not include a glyph for a specific codeset, OS/2 load that glyph from the associated font.

Primarily, this is used when DBCS chars need to be displayed on a program using SBCS fonts only.

For DBCS users, I think, this feature is very important.
