Korea


We provide language and cultural support for several Asian languages, including Korean. The large number of characters in the Korean language makes it impossible to arrange them on a keyboard. Therefore, an input method, called the input server, is used to make sequences of keyboard events that correspond to each Korean character. The input server for WorldView(TM) Korean is called xwnmo(1). It translates your input of phonetic symbols into the equivalent character.

Printing

To print a Korean language text file to a PostScript compatible printer, use the following command:

% /bin/lp -dprinter textfile

where textfile is the name of your file. If a PostScript printer does not support Korean characters, you should modify the /usr/lib/print/ilptops_map.ko_KR.euc file before printing with the lp command. For details, please see WorldView(TM) Korean Manual.
