Where can I find unicode fonts?
Anyway - the problem is not with what I see in this computer under
linux. The problem is how to get those files to a different computer with
windows. Anyone here has some experience with unicode filenames support of
zip? tar?
Or would it be best to use a windows client through a samba server? or
maybe ftp or http?
