Using pre-drawn fonts really becomes less efficient when dealing with Chinese characters.

If you have the DX 8.1 SDK, the classes are located in the files in d3dfont.h and d3dfont.cpp contained in the SDK_ROOT\samples\Multimedia\Common\src and include directories respectively. Take a look at those.

Direct3D 8 has support for GDI-like fonts build in, i think its
called D3DXFONT or something similiar
check out the webpage below, thats
where I learned how to use it.

That in conjunction with the info on MSDN is a pretty comprehensive, although you should have at least a basic understanding of Direct3D first.

Theres also CD3DFont as mentioned by grasshopa55, but I''ve never used it.
