Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and future versions of Windows. For older
versions of Win-NT, Win-98 and 95, the font used to be freely available
from Microsoft website dor downloading. However, Microsoft has
discontinued this offer.
As at July 2003, the font is still available at website: http://vietunicode.sourceforge.net/ This Times New Roman font is one of the 3 basic Microsoft core fonts which contain extra international characters including the Vietnamese characters.

| Printing
Problems: Generally, you can print the webpage directly from
your browser. However, if your printer fails to print the document
properly, try one of the following methods:
1. Click: File --> Print -->
Properties --> Print Quality --> Send True Type as Bitmap (or
"Print Text as Graphics"; or set "Graphic Mode as
HP-GL/2") 2. Save the HTML page in your hard disk.
Then, import into a Word document and print. 3. Run Netscape (version 4.7 or
later), access to the webpage, and print within Netscape 4. If all fails, you might consider to purchase a Unicode-compliant printer, such as the Epson Color Stylus series (it's inexpensive and the printing quality is quite good). |
