The operating system uses bitmap fonts for Latin-9 (ISO 8859–15) to support the same languages as supported for
Latin-1 (ISO 8859–1). The Latin-9 fonts include a glyph for the euro character and are therefore used with the *.UTF-8
locales supporting Western European languages.

The ETL public domain fonts support about 1000 characters of the Universal Character Set (UCS). Additional composite
fonts for UTF-8 locales are created by the libfr_FGC font renderer from fonts that are available for the ISO 8859–1 and
ISO 8859–15 codesets. Neither the ETL fonts nor those for Latin-1 and Latin-9 encoding support Chinese, Japanese, or
Korean characters. Characters in these Asian languages are supported by converting UTF-8 encoding to an encoding for
which fonts are available.
In addition to the bitmap fonts described in these tables, the operating
system provides two sets of monospaced fonts: a 16x18 pixel set and a
24x24 pixel set. These monospaced fonts support UTF-8 locales with Latin
and ISO/IEC 10646 encoding. The bitmap fonts have the following CDE
font aliases:
-dt-interface-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1|2|3|4|5|7|8|9|15@mono
-dt-interface-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1@mono
