We do have a problem creating Chinese characters on the screen. Don't blame the messenger.

I found one Puppy Linux version that works. It's Ubuntu-24.04 which is in the making as 'NoblePup64' right here: viewforum.php?f=216

To display chinese characters, suiitables font must be installedm but I I don't see any in PKGget

Another method install a pet from icake
viewtopic.php?p=95296#p95296

I tested with the first pet the chinese characters are displayed but the keyboard layout has become us and xvkb in fr does not work.
WARNING : The installed pet is not listed in PKGget.

EDIT : Clicking the script puninstall.sh (present in the "unzipped" pet) restore the french layout keyboard , but many files from the pet were not removed

After installation of the deb packages fonts-arphic-ukai and fonts-arphic-uming, and after relaunch of X (or reboot), the chinese characters are correctly displayed

See blog post, have added a fairly small ttf file for Chinese and other Asian languages:

1. Copy Chinese support TTF font files to ~/.fonts
2. Update font support command `fc-cache -v -f`

After display support, install Fcitx Input Method used to.

DroidFallback indeed supports Chinese, Japanese, Arab script. However it does not have Korean, Thai, Devanagari, Khmer script, Burmese support
