Freemind with UMing font

Description of problem:
When using uming font in java application, only upper half the characters are
displayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cjkuni-uming-fonts-0.2.20080216.1-37.fc13.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. We use freemind for example.
2. Download freemind zip and install it, say, in /tmp/freemind
3. cd /tmp/freemind; chmod 755 freemind.sh; ./freemind.sh
4. In F-13, java is not able to show Chinese, because the font name and path
changes. Suppose we use java-1.6.0-openjdk.
5. su or sudo as root
6. cd /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0/jre/lib
7. cp fontconfig.Fedora.properties.src fontconfig.Fedora.properties
8. Either manually search/replace AR PL ShanHeiSong to AR PL UMing HK
fontconfig.Fedora.properties; or use attached fontconfig.Fedora.properties
9. Start freemind to see the how font is displayed

Actual results:
UMing characters are cut in to half. See Screenshot-uming.png

Expected results:
UMing characters are displayed as whole.

Additional info:
UKai seems act normally. See Screenshot-ukai.png

Uming like many other CJK fonts is difficult to handle by apps. While it is
possible that uming could be simplified, your problem is almost certainly due
to bad font handling code in java, that was only tested on simple latin fonts,
and not on a complex one like uming.

I've opened an openjdk bug, leaving this one alone if someone wants to try to
convert uming to use more common font conventions.

I checked this bug on Fedora 14, it is fixed.
Move this bug to F-14, and close this bug.
