Sometimes an incorrect fonts.dir is generated by the SLES11 installation process. Java uses X11 font settings in fonts.dir to access to True Type fonts. With the wrong fonts.dir, Java might not display the correct characters.
This issue applies only to Japanese TrueType fonts such as Sazanami Gothic and Sazanami Mincho.
To verify your installation, check fonts.dir after installation using the command:
$ grep "^sazanami-.*misc-sazanami.*10646" /usr/share/fonts/truetype/fonts.dir sazanami-gothic.ttf -misc-sazanami gothic-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1 sazanami-mincho.ttf -misc-sazanami mincho-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1
If your output is not similar to the example output, a root user must run the commands:
# mkdir /tmp/fonts # cd /tmp/fonts # cp -i /usr/share/fonts/truetype/sazanami-*.ttf . # mkfontscale . # cp fonts.scale /usr/share/fonts/truetype/fonts.scale.sazanami # cd ~ # /usr/sbin/fonts-config -v -d -f # rm -rf /tmp/fonts
Verify using the previous grep command.
On Japanese versions of Linux, you can use a Japanese input method such as Canna or FreeWnn.
Known limitations and solutions for IME users.
If you use an IME on a TextArea or a TextField component with Motif AWT, the composed text is sometimes displayed in the wrong position. To avoid this problem, do not change the component position vertically after you commit a string. If you do encounter this problem, reactivate the IME; the composed text is then displayed at the correct position. The committed text is always displayed at the correct position.
If you are using kinput2 as the input method server, do not use the Close button on the window frame because kinput2 might be stopped by this operation.
If you are using IIIMF as the input method server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, Java requires the IIIMF packages (iiimf-*-12.1.13.EL.3) or higher. These packages are included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 3 or later.
If you are using SCIM as the input method server, character composition should be completed before you change focus. Do not change focus rapidly with key input because Java might not receive the key event properly.
Limitations using Canna with quoted-insert-mode.
If you switch to quoted-insert-mode by pressing Ctrl + Q, entering control characters might cause unexpected behavior. To avoid this problem, disable quoted-insert-mode by adding the following line to $HOME/.canna. If $HOME/.canna does not exist, copy default.canna to the home directory as $HOME/.canna and add the following line:
(global-unbind-key-function 'quoted-insert)
If you are using FreeWnn, the numpad Enter key might not create a new line and a carriage return while the Input Method Editor (IME) is activated. To create a new line and carriage return, deactivate the IME.

On Japanese versions of Linux, you can use a Japanese input method such as Canna or FreeWnn.
Known limitations and solutions for IME users.
If you use an IME on a TextArea or a TextField component with Motif AWT, the composed text is sometimes displayed in the wrong position. To avoid this problem, do not change the component position vertically after you commit a string. If you do encounter this problem, reactivate the IME; the composed text is then displayed at the correct position. The committed text is always displayed at the correct position.
If you are using kinput2 as the input method server, do not use the Close button on the window frame because kinput2 might be stopped by this operation.
If you are using IIIMF as the input method server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, Java requires the IIIMF packages (iiimf-*-12.1.13.EL.3) or higher. These packages are included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 3 or later.
If you are using SCIM as the input method server, character composition should be completed before you change focus. Do not change focus rapidly with key input because Java might not receive the key event properly.
Limitations using Canna with quoted-insert-mode.
If you switch to quoted-insert-mode by pressing Ctrl + Q, entering control characters might cause unexpected behavior. To avoid this problem, disable quoted-insert-mode by adding the following line to $HOME/.canna. If $HOME/.canna does not exist, copy default.canna to the home directory as $HOME/.canna and add the following line:
(global-unbind-key-function 'quoted-insert)
If you are using FreeWnn, the numpad Enter key might not create a new line and a carriage return while the Input Method Editor (IME) is activated. To create a new line and carriage return, deactivate the IME.
