Hi Everyone,
When I use Arial Unicode MS in some programs, it appear at the top of all Fonts with the '@' sign in front of it's name. like '@Arial Unicode' . I want my font to be like that. How can I do? And I can only use Unicode in Photoshop CS only with the font Arial Unicode MS. I think this is related to that @sign. Please explain me more about that.
Yours,
VOX

Indeed several applications (for example WordPad) show CJK (Chinese/ Japanese/ Korean) fonts twice, once as expected and a second item in the font list that has a @ as prefix. For example Arial Unicode MS also shows as @Arial Unicode MS in the font list in WordPad. The one with the @ prefix is known as a vertical version of the same font. You could add those settings as shown in the screenshot below, but I don't recommend this unless your font does indeed contain those character ranges.
