[opensuse] Cyrillic letter Ѣ

Hello all.

On a fresh install of 11.1/KDE 4.2.2 I am working with a document that
contains Cyrillic characters. There is one character that will not
display in Konqueror (an HTML document) nor will this character display
in Kate text editor, nor in Kwrite. A small rectangular placeholder is
displayed instead which I assume means "unknown character". Other
Cyrillic characters display correctly.

The same HTML document displays the character correctly using Firefox
and a document created with OpenOffice also displays correctly.

The HTML was created from a MS Word doc using wvWare. The Kate, Kwrite,
and OO documents were created by copy-n-paste from the Gnome character map.

See here example of FF and Konqueror:

Any clues as to why a "Ѣ" will not display using a text editor?
Thanks!
Mike G

  • Re: Text On Picturebox
    ... In the above specific case there would be some output because VB would convert the value 0.5 to a Long and because TextOut would interpret it as a pixel value anyway so it would be at the top left of the PicBox, but you would not initially see the output because it would be drawn into the PictureBox's autoredraw bitmap in memory and VB itself would not know it had been drawn there and VB would therefore not automatically refresh the PictureBox as displayed on the screen. ... As far as StrokePath is concerned, that method is perfect for use on high resolution devices such as printers, and you can fairly easily achieve lots of nice effects with it, but it doesn't work so well on the display because the display has a relatively low resolution. ... The apparent quality of images is of course a subjective thing, but personally I think that on the display you can achieve nicer looking output just by Printing the text in the normal way, because the Print method uses font smoothing whereas the various Path methods do not. ... You need to be a little bit careful with the above Autosize Label method if either the first character or the last character of the text string happens to overhang the edge of its character cell because in such a case the Label Control will often leave a little trail of dots as the user moves it. ...
