摘要

A multi-language system (30, 60) for quickly selecting a font file corresponding to a character comprises a font database (45) and a code mapping table (50). The font database (45) has at least one character code area and at least one font memory unit (51a, 51b, 61a, 61b). Each font storage unit (51a, 51b, 61a, 61b) is for storing at least one font file corresponding to a natural language, and each font file corresponds to a character code. A method of quickly selecting the font file includes: finding a character code area containing the character code from the code map according to the character code to a font memory unit (51a, 51b, 61a, 61b) according to to get the character code; Creating a font file address of a font file corresponding to the character code from the font storage unit (51a, 51b, 61a, 61b) according to the character code; and selecting the font file corresponding to the character code from the font storage unit (51a, 51b, 61a, 61b) in accordance with the address of the font file address.
