cyrillic font

[Kenny]

Can you please instruct me on how to get cyrillic fonts
to show on dialog boxes. I have tried to install
programs that use Russian fonts and all I get on the
dialog boxes are all "????????????" or all "Aaaa and
oooo". I am able to type and read Russian on my computer
but cannot read for example installation dialog boxes.
Thank you

Hi,

Setting up your computer to read and type in Ukrainian
http://www.plast.org.au/font.php#typexp

1) That page is kind of outdated (Netscape 4 and IE 4 are described there)

2) The information on that page is not relevant to this question -
he already _can_ read/write in say MS Word or on Web -
but he cannot use made-in-Russia *programs* where Cyrillic is
in _interface_ - menus, dialogs, ...

Please read the section of my site which is devoted to this
subject. It's called
"Full Russification: Russian programs and file names".
