Chinese fonts list under windows xp

I setup one English windows XP home edition with supporting Asia languages
(unicode). All applications have no problem in viewing Chinese (even
typing), but when I go to font list under any application (wordpad, word,
excel, photoshop...etc.), there is NO Chinese fonts to choose!?

I installed some Chinese fonts (pure .ttf). It looks fine under control
panel/fonts, but just not showing under font list in any application. I am
not sure what's wrong with the settings. Any suggestions that I could try?
Maybe try to reinstall the language pack again? But how?

thank you

Darren

WHEN I USE OPENOFFICE, IT DOSEN'T SHOW THE FONTS I INSTALLED.
FINALLY I KNOW MY TTF FONTS ARE BIG-5 ENCODED. AND OPENOFFICE DON'T
RECOGNIZE BIG-5 CODE.
MAYBE YOU'RE FACING THE SAME PROBLEM.
YOU NEED SOME UNICODE FONTS.

How did you set up the Asian languages in XP Home edition? Did you
download and install the Chinese IME or use the IME from the XP CD?
One works correctly the other doesn't. (IME from the CD is what you
should use) Anyway, the East Asian fonts for Chinese, Japanese,
Korean, are designated with a *.TTC extension and can be found in your
c:\windows\fonts folder.

To check your installation and for additional hints go to the
