Installing Font Extensions on Your PC
The ARIB specifications for ISDB make use of private extensions to the standard
Unicode character set [0xE000-0xF8FF]. These extensions provide additional
characters and non-standard proprietary characters; they are used to extend an
existing font. Check with the transport stream broadcaster for the availability of
any font extension set for their transport stream. Because these font extension files
are specific to the broadcaster, they are not supplied by Tektronix.
The extension sets are provided as TrueType Extension files (*.tte). Any extension
sets should be installed using the Private Character Editor which is supplied as part
of the standard Windows installation.
The following paragraphs describe the general procedure required to install an
extension set:
1. Select Start => Run.
2. Enter eudcedit and select OK.
3. The Private Character Editor is opened. Close the Select Code dialog box.
4. Select File => Font Links….
5. In the Font Links dialog box, select the Link with selected fonts option. (If
Link with all fonts is selected, the following actions will overwrite any
existing extension sets.)
6. In the Select Fonts box, find and highlight the font to which the extension is
to be made; this font should be the one used in the RUI.
7. Select Save As…..
8. Browse to the supplied TrueType extension file (*.tte) and select Save.
9. In the Font Links dialog box, select OK.
10. Close the Private Character Editor.
To check that the extension has been successfully installed:
1. Open the Character Map application (Select Start => Run and enter
charmap).
2. Select font name (Private Characters) and note the extended character set.

The extended character set is now available for use when the font is selected.
