liang xiao commented on PIVOT-315:
----------------------------------

I finally know why the code setting font to support chinese characters did not work. look into the code. it set font before method "readObject()". so font setting did not really effect pivot. I changed order as bellow. it work fine.

theme.setFont(font.deriveFont(Font.PLAIN,12));
serializer.readObject(this,"hello.xml");

> Verdana cannot display all characters in the UTF-8 character set, meaning that if you try to render a string containing extended UTF-8 characters (such as Chinese characters), you will get "non-renderable-character" boxes instead.
