There are ten free-distributed TTF fonts developed by the professor of Hann-Tzong Wang, at the Department of Math, Chung Yuan Christian University in Taiwan. If anyone is interesting in those 10 ttf fonts, you can connect to the 10 ftp address for downloading. I have never used those fonts before, no warranty about the fonts.
Thank you. The license seems to be GPL although it looks difficult to track where these fonts originally come from

The following screenshots comparing the glyph at Unicode code point 0x57f0 from wcl-01.ttf with the corresponding glyph from the Arphic Mingti font (size 300 pixel): http://www.suse.de/~mfabian/screenshots/wangttf-wcl-01-u57f0.pn http://www.suse.de/~mfabian/screenshots/arphic-mingti2l-u57f0.png These wangttf fonts seem to be useful only for fancy decoration and not as general purpose fonts like the Arphic PL fonts. Most of the wangttf fonts are very decorative like in the above example, andd the few which look rather 'normal' are not very good either. I'm not sure whether it's worth packaging these fonts. For display on screen they are unusable. They could be used for printing if one wants some very funny fonts. -- Mike Fabian <mfabian@suse.de> http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。
