Flash text is not so "heavy" and you can insert better fonts as the typically used to give a more professional image.

The people who can read Chinese have the fonts already May 4, 2005

"I would not want interested clients to first have to install the Windows Language Pack for Asian fonts. I can imagine that it would be too troublesome for them. At least I wouldn't do it if I were a client browsing the net looking for a potential translation agency to work with."

Suggestion: Place a notice on top of the Chinese pages, or at least next to the link to the page, that informs them they need to have Chinese fonts installed to read the page.

My idea is that if they already read Chinese, they will probably have Chinese fonts installed. If they don't read Chinese, installing the fonts will not help them evaluate your ability.
