FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
JAVA JRE 6.11 for windows, used in both Firefox and IE 7
ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Tested on Windows Vista and Vindows XP
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I wrote an applet that displays Romanian text, UTF-8, in a button. The text displays perfectly in any browser on Linux, but the latin-2 romanian caracters ¿,¿,¿,â, display in Windows only as squares.
It looks as if mapping grom UTF-8 to Windows Latin-2 fonts was not tested on Windows.
This is a bug only in the distribution for Windows.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Print a Romanian ¿¿¿â¿¿¿ in a java applet. It will not display correctly
ACTUAL -
squares instead latin-2 characters
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
