Korean characters are not displayed correctly.

To view Korean in X application, the application must support the Korean character encoding. In case of terminal programs, it must support 2 byte characters. Try using hanterm, gnome-terminal, or konsole instead of xterm.


If Korean characters are not displayed correctly although the X application supports Korean, it is because the Korean font package is not installed or necessary environment settings are not configured correctly.

You can view the list of available fonts in the Font Catagues in the Xconfig profile. Fonts used in your X applications must be installed in Xmanager before it can be displayed correctly.


  • Using font server (xfs): 
    To run font server, please refer to the following FAQ Link:

  • Copying Unix/Linux font to Xmanager:

    Copy the font directory you wish to use to "C:\Program Files\NetSarang\Xmanager 6\Fonts\" of your PC. (You can use Xftp to do this. Please select binary for the transfer type.) Then, run Xconfig to add the font directory including 'fonts.dir'. If you need add individual font instead of full set of font directory, or the font file is not in the format that Xmanager can read, please refer to Managing Fonts available in Xmanager Help.
