    Perhaps it's a crap font then, best site for fonts i'd say is Dafont.com or whatever it is...

    Good luck ;)

    did you try their instructions?

    Instructions:

    Please make sure that in the Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Regional Options the default language ("Set default") is "Chinese (VR China)".

    1. Please close all word-processing programs.
    2. Click on the font you wish to download.
    3. Choose a saving location, either "C:/WINNT/fonts" (NT/2000) or "C:/WINDOWS/fonts" (9x/Me/XP).
    OR: save the fonts to a new folder, then open "Fonts" from the "Control Panel";
    select "File" -> "Install New Font";
    open the drive and folder where you saved the new font files,
    the fonts will appear in the "list of fonts";
    select the files you want to install or choose "Select All"; click "OK".
    4. Restart your word-processing programs.

    It won't type in chinese if you don't have it in the language selector.

    it's that and i think you may need to know the chinese phonetics to get the word you want come out.

    Totally off-topic but you gotta put a 56k warning. It took me forever to load it.
