Chinese character

[hu1576105100]

Can it support Chinese character set? I tried other character sets, it will display garbled characters.

It can support any 8 x 16 character set, but you would need to create it.

The fonts are stored as a plain bitmap - 8 pixels x 16 pixels high - we use Fony to create a font and then export it as a bitmap.

I use fony draw two words by click pixel block, but there are too many words in charset table of chinese, is there any other way to create a font that suport chinese, to quickly achive my goal

If you say there are more than 256 chinese characters (which would not surprise me), then how do the printers handle this? The ESC/P2 programming reference manual does not include any chinese character table sets.

Normally the Epson printers only deal with 0 to 255 as the character code for each letter.

There is no quick way around this - you can use a much bigger 16 bit character set but would need to work out how to interpret the incoming byte as a chinese character and then look it up in the character set.
