#Mac chinese fonts install#
After researching the forum, I realize that this is a common issue, and attempted to install Chinese font in X11 to solve the problem. However, the Chinese characters are not displayed at all (only squares.).
I am using OS X 10.9.1 and have successfully installed Xquartz, TheWord, and the modules containing Chinese Bibles and notes. I have been using TheWord for a while on PC, and would like to receive the same blessing on Mac. This is because there is italics and imitation song in Windows 7 / Vista / 2008.I am a new Mac user, just switched from PC recently.
