Hi, all,
I have solved the problem with help of Lutz and the other people. I must
thanks Lutz, and thanks everyone here :-)
Here is my way of Chinese setup in ConTeXt. I hope this can be of any
help to some newbies like me who have problems in processing Chinese.
1. Get the truetype fonts, htfs.ttf, hthei.ttf, htkai.ttf and htsong.ttf
from
ftp://ftp.ctex.org/pub/tex/fonts/truetype/ttf/
2. Get corresponding tfm file, gbfs.zip, gbhei.zip, gbkai.zip and
gbsong.zip from
ftp://ftp.ctex.org/pub/tex/fonts/truetype/for_pdftex/tfm
3. Get the enc file, Gbk.zip from
ftp://ftp.ctex.org/pub/tex/fonts/truetype/for_pdftex/enc_map
4. Get the map file, map.zip, from
ftp://ftp.ctex.org/pub/tex/fonts/truetype/for_pdftex/enc_map
5. Put the ttf font files you got in step 1 to
texmf-fonts/fonts/truetype/chinese
6. Unzip the files you got in step 2 and you get four corresponding
directories(which contain tfm files), then put them in
texmf-fonts/fonts/tfm/chinese
7. Unzip Gbk.zip, you will get a directory named "Gbk" which contains
many enc files. Put the directory to texmf-fonts/fonts/enc/chinese
8.Unzip map.zip, you will get many map files, you need just the gbk.map.
You need to edit gbk.map, delete entried of gbli at the end of the file
(lines 505-629):
gbli81 <GBli81.enc <simli.ttf
gbli82 <GBli82.enc <simli.ttf
gbli83 <GBli83.enc <simli.ttf
gbli84 <GBli84.enc <simli.ttf
.............................
.............................
.............................
gblifd <GBlifd.enc <simli.ttf
gblife <GBlife.enc <simli.ttf
Then, put the modified gbk.map to texmf-fonts/fonts/map/chinese.
Note that newer pdfetex don't read pdftex.cfg so better use
\loadmapfile[gbk] in your document.
9. Your document should can be compiled now. Attached is a test file
from Lutz, so you can have a test of your ConTeXt.
10. I haven't tried to complie Traditional Chinese documents. Maybe just
get corresponding files for Traditional Chinese and put there to the
right location will work. I'm not sure.
Best wishes.
