Help installing Chinese fonts -- Font book says 'serious problems with font
I was trying to install two fonts I found here:
http://www.ibiblio.org/chinesehistory/contents/08fea/c02.html#Fonts
Specifically, I wanted HDZB_25.TTF and HYCuZhuanF.TTF although many of the other fonts on the page looked interesting as well.
When I download and expand the ZIPs I see the files are TTF files (as listed above). However, when I install them using Font Book I get the error message "Serious problems found with this font", and it won't let me install it. (I tried over-riding the advice, but still no luck).
I think these fonts were originally for the PC. Do I have to get a converter utility? Is this something to do with BigFive font encoding or something else like that? I'm stumped.Any help gratefully received 🙂
