I am sorry I missed them.

1. First, I use 2 Chinese fonts, Kai and Ming (bkai00mp.ttf and 
bsmi00lp.ttf) as well as
    fonts.dir    luximb.ttf   luxirbi.ttf  luxirr.ttf   luxisri.ttf
    fonts.scale  luximri.ttf  luxirb.ttf   luxisbi.ttf  luxisr.ttf
    luximbi.ttf  luximr.ttf   luxirri.ttf  luxisb.ttf

    I start Lotus Notes and all Chinese can be displayed (because it is 
using Chinese font by default, Ming)
    English characters shown, however, are very ugly.

2. When I copy the fonts from Windows and include the path,  the 
interface and
    other fonts look good (using courier, helvetica and arial).  I would 
like to ask it's because
    Lotus Notes default uses those fonts?

    I want to display both Chinese and English, does WINE support 
loading fontset?
    or if I need to manually detect Chinese range and use Chinese font? 
and could somebody
    point me some hints?  Thanks very much.
