Karl Wright commented on FOR-1232:
----------------------------------
It turns out that although Dejavu makes great fanfare about it containing CJK
characters, it actually does not at this time. So this is not a useful
exercise right now.
> Forrest might want to consider making Dejavu the default font for PDF
> generation

> Key: FOR-1232
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-1232
> Project: Forrest
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Internationalisation (i18n)
> Affects Versions: 0.9, 0.10-dev
> Reporter: Karl Wright
>
> Forrest's configuration for PDF generation seems to use default fonts that do
> not have CJK characters. The Forrest site describes using the open-source
> Dejavu font family as a way of generating such multilingual PDFs. Since the
> Dejavu license has been ruled by Apache Legal as being compatible with the
> Apache License, it seems like a natural step to generate PDFs in Forrest
> using the Dejavu font by default, saving CJK users a significant amount of
> work in order to use Forrest.
