ok, we don't support non-packaged fonts or msttcorefonts, therefor we only provide configurations for the fonts we ship. Since you use a non-Japanese locale, the system cannot determine which font you prefer to display Japanese text. Since many Kanji are also used in Chinese texts and the Chinese fonts we provide cover more glyphs than the Japanese ones, fontconfig/pango will prefer the Chinese font over the Japanese ones. An exception is made here for Kana, because those are labeled as being exclusively Japanese within fontconfig/pango. Therefor a Japanese font is used here. If you want to tell the system that you prefer Japanese fonts, you can use 'fontconfig-voodoo -f -s ja_JP'. But this will also force the Latin glyphs to be rendered by Japanese fonts, since this is expected behavior among Japanese users. Other than that, the only way to 'fix' this would be for you to create a custom ~/.fonts.conf file and specify the fonts you would like to use and in which order there. You can take a look at /etc/fonts/conf.avail/69-language-selector-$lang-$country.conf for examples. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIKULObp/QbmhdHowRAgZ1AKDFdLGi3yKCzHsdlWENCqd+rl7AVQCgn1IT ZCRItcnAHorbeITUh1uf+bg= =wv5E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [hardy] different font for Kanji and Kana https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222228 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
