Opera 6

Opera 6 is the first version of Opera to include Unicode support. Development for Mac OS 9 and earlier has ceased – version 6.0.3 is the last release. It is not restricted to characters supported by Apple’s Language Kits, and it can display any Unicode character from a resource-fork font such as BJ Cree Uni, Everson Mono Unicode, Gentium and Ragnarok Ogham.
Opera 6 automatically assigns fonts for most Unicode ranges and writing systems, but you can also specify fonts for each encoding that you want to be able to display. The lists of fonts are restricted to those that support the chosen encoding. To set fonts for the various encodings that are supported in Opera 6:
  1. Click the Opera title bar to ensure that it is the current application.
  2. Click “Edit” on the menu bar at the top of the screen.
  3. Click “Preferences...” on the Edit menu, to open the Preferences dialog box.
  4. Click “Fonts and colors” in the list on the left of the dialog box.
  5. Click the big “International fonts ...” button in the International section, to open the International fonts dialog box.
  6. Click the black up-down arrow to the right of “Writing system” and select a Unicode range (e.g. Cyrillic) or a writing system (e.g. Chinese simplified).
  7. Pick fonts from the scrolling lists under “Normal font” and “Monospace font”.
  8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 for each Unicode range and writing system that you want to use.
  9. Click the “OK” button to close the International fonts dialog box.
  10. Click “Apply” to save your new settings.
  11. Click the “OK” button to close the Preferences dialog box.
To set the default encoding, which will be used to display Web pages that do not specify an encoding:
  1. Click the Opera title bar to ensure that it is the current application.
  2. Click “Edit” on the menu bar at the top of the screen.
  3. Click “Preferences...” on the Edit menu, to open the Preferences dialog box.
  4. Click “Languages” in the list on the left of the dialog box.
  5. Click the black up-down arrow to the right of “HTML” in the Fallback encoding section, and select an encoding from the scrolling list.
  6. Click “Apply” to save your new settings.
  7. Click the “OK” button to close the Preferences dialog box.
Opera 6 appears to support all of the Unicode ranges in the basic multilingual plane.
