Can't Read Chinese on P1i with Isilo 5.0

[Andrew Lam]

Just downloaded and installed the Isilo 5.0 version to my Sony Ericsson that runs with UIQ3. The device comes with a Chinese OS and it has no problem in displaying Chinese websites, Word documents etc.

The Isilo 5.0 works fine too when I copy the pdb files I used to read on my Pam TE2, only that it can't display Chinese.

Seems to me there is no menu option to set the fonts other than its size, so how can we make the Isilo 5.0 display Chinese?

Please help and thanks in advance.

While viewing the document, go to the menu and select Edit/Options. In the Options dialog, go to the Font tab, which is the second to the last tab. On the Font tab, what are the names of all the fonts listed in the "Font to use" field?

No, it's not on the "font" tab, but rather on the "content" tab. Choose "Big 5" under the "Encoding" section.

Though it's actually not very conspicuous, at last I find the above way to display Chinese on my P1i.

Trust this post will be useful to anyone who may have similar problem, as P1i is quite a hot Smartphone model lately.
