Foreign characters
Nov 26th, 2007, 3:26pm  
I apologise if this is a terribly ridiculous question,

I'm currently writing a program in Processing, part of which parses results from Google.  For now I'm simply printing what I receive to the console, wherein lies the problem.  I've changed the font in preferences.txt to a Unicode font which supports Chinese characters, however, it's still printing the standard question marks instead of the actual characters.

Is there any way to fix this?

you're probably losing the encoding somewhere else--the console should be able to print unicode characters without any problem.

in fact, it's perhaps more likely to work with the default font rather than changing the font in the prefs file, since java may not know that your new font has an extended character set.
