[Qt-interest] How to support Korean language in Qt

[sudhish kapoor]

Thanks for the detailed reply Oliver, i am using qt linguist and the code is
encapsulated within tr(), but my problem is the font file to be used for
Showing the Korean Font because i am unable to see the fonts on the Ui can
you please help me with the name of the font file to be used!!!
I tried with NanumGothic.ttf file as mentioned in

http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/24242-Problem-with-korean-characters-display

It displays Japenese and Chinese characters after adding MSGOTHIC.TTF file
but not Korean.

Can anyone please help on this please.

Thanks

- Make sure you have such a font installed on your system (is it usable in
other apps?)
       I think its the font problem as i am able to see the Japanese and the
Chinese font but just not the Korean font
