Default CTL font for Thai
Default CTL font for Thai on Linux is Kinnari 16pt, while that for Western is
Liberation Serif 12pt. This causes incompatible character size between English
and Thai text in the default config, making customization mandatory.
While it might be the case on Windows that Thai fonts are usually scaled down
to gain some vertical space for multi-level combining characters, and scaling
up is thus necessary when mixed with Western fonts, it's different on Linux,
especially for the Kinnari font. On Linux, Thai fonts are made compatible in
metrics with Western fonts, so that one can mix fonts in multilingual text
using the same point size.
Therefore, the default CTL font for Thai on Linux should be of the same size as
that of Western, i.e. 12pt in this case.
