Hi folks, The default CJK fonts on Windows are going to change, to prefer Noto CJK if they are installed locally.
This change is to improve the readability and typography of CJK text. Recent CSS features such as `text-spacing-trim <https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-4/#text-spacing-trim-property>` (shipped in M123 <https://chromestatus.com/feature/5170044014690304>) and ` font-variant-east-asian <https://drafts.csswg.org/css-fonts/#font-variant-east-asian-prop>` require OpenType features that are not available in the current default CJK fonts. In addition, Noto CJK is primarily designed for magazines, similar to Hiragino on macOS, which is a good fit for the default fonts for the web. This change includes preferring Noto CJK in the system fallback on Windows. This means that, if the user installed Noto CJK locally, and the page doesn't specify fonts that can serve CJK characters, the Noto CJK will be preferred. Please let me know if there are any questions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "blink-dev" group.
