My guess is still the same: you are not using a Chinese font.
Examples of TrueType Unicode fonts suitable for Chinese:
- Arial Unicode MS (ARIALUNI.TTF, distributed with Office 2000)
- Code 2000 (Code2000.ttf, from http://home.att.net/~jameskass/)
- MS Mincho (MSMINCHO.TTF, I think it comes with the Chinese support package
for IE 5)
- PMingLiu (PMINGLIU.TTF, by Dynalab Inc.)
- SimSun (SIMSUN.TTF, by Zhongyi Electronic Co.)
See also http://www.hclrss.demon.co.uk/unicode/fonts.html, a great starting
point for finding Unicode fonts for specific languages.
