Hi,
Thanks a lot. Sometimes I need to kick to start to think ;-) One problem 
still remains. I don't use omega now, it should do without it. There is 
a package called cjk-latex which should do the job. But, I still get 
this nasty output and no dvi for chinese:

?

I understand that it can't find my fonts (am I right?), but I am sure 
that I have fonts installed. Can I explicitly set the path or what else 
I can do?
I tried another font with different encoding and I got another error:

$

?

What does it all mean? How do I fix it?
Thanks a lot
