The user interface of Fedora Core 1 under English locale is quite pretty but the Chinese one still ugly. Does it support reading and writing Chinese under English locale like Windows 2K? This article shows how I installed Chinese support for Fedora under English locale(en_US.UTF-8).

• Fedora Installation
  Select only English(USA) locale. Some fonts and input methods will also installed if you select Chinese locale. But those are no use.

  Select and Install Gnome, Development, Kernel Development, Gnome Development and X Development. You may ignore the development packages if you don’t need them at all.

• Fonts Installation
  Copy the TrueType fonts you want from Microsoft Windows to /usr/share/fonts/windows/. You many find the fonts at Windows’ \WINNT\Fonts directory.
  
  Than execute the commands as root.

• Fedora安装
  安装的时候Locale仅选择English(USA) 就可以了。中文那些只是安装了些字体和输入法，而那些又都是不需要的。

  我还选择安装了Gnome, Development, Kernel Development, Gnome Development和X Development。

• 字体安装
  将Microsoft Windows下的相应TrueType拷贝到Fedora相应目录。我是放在/usr/share/fonts/windows目录下。

  然后以root执行下面的命令
