Formatting of Simplified Chinese & Traditional Chinese

["Broberg, Mats" <mats -dot- broberg -at- flir -dot- se>]

Dear listmembers,

How do you deal with "bold", "italic" and other ways of emphasis when
localizing manuals to Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese? I
understand that "bold" and "italic" as methods of typographically
emphasizing something don't exist in Chinese typography, although some CJK
typefaces nowadays seem to feature these varieties. I would be interested in
hearing your views about handling typographical emphasis in CJK.

Also, if there is someone out there who localize their manuals into a large
number of different scripts systems (Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic, CJK etc), I
would be interested to exchange a few e-mails about Unicode & typeface
issues.

Best regards,
