Correct Chinese display with Trebuchet-MS on 2.1.3

Chinese characters are displayed as blank boxen none

Description Jiawei Ye CLA 2004-04-14 00:47:20 EDT
In eclipse 2.1.x, settings text fonts to "Courier New" or "Trebuchet MS" is 
very desirable because it gives easy-reading Latin fonts and Chinese fonts. 
But in 3.0M8, selecting the above fonts displays only Latin characters and no 
more Chinese characters.

Chinese is displayed correctly in 2.1.3, using Trebuchet-MS

Chinese characters are displayed as blank boxen

In 3.0M8, the same setup with Trebuchet-MS. Please note the blank boxen which
are Chinese characters.
