You need to tell us your OS: see the request in the posting guide for
'at a minimum' the result of sessionInfo().
We also need to know what graphics device(s) you are intending to use.
For postscript or PDF, see the article by Paul Murrell and myself in R
News 2006-2.
Note too that 'Chinese' isn't one language (most OSes have two
separate
ones for 'traditional' and 'simplified') and several encodings
are used
for each of those languages. Some devices have separate 'Chinese Fonts'
for the two languages.
