Public bug reported: Hi,
This bug is related to #149348. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/149348 I already reported to KDE/KWrite, but was told to report here instead. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172638 Here is my issue: Description: Opened: 2008-10-12 10:09 Last Changed: 2008-10-13 21:08:56 Version: 4.5.9 (using 3.5.9, Kubuntu (hardy) 4:3.5.9-0ubuntu7.1) Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-19-generic Hi, When I use the font 'Monospace', the kanji (絵) is missing. It draws as a square with black border and transparent fill -- a generic missing character image. See the Wiktionary page here: http://li.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E7%B5%B5 I noticed I can see it inside my Firefox browser, but the app title (drawn by KDE libs) draws the kanji as a square when you open the Wiki page above. Try to copy and paste the kanji into KWrite to replicate. I cannot find another fixed width font that has this kanji. I only know courier, and it doesn't work there either. This bug report may appear misdirected, but I don't know how to file a bug for a font missing a character. Apologies in advance! Otherwise, KWrite and KDE is dandy. Thanks for your hard work. I appreciate it! Kind regards, Kevin Connor Arpe Comment #1 Matthew Woehlke 2008-10-13 21:08:56 As you note, this is most likely not a kwrite bug, nor even a KDE bug, and further may be no bug at all. I suggest taking this to your distribution's support forums; most likely, you are simply missing a font that provides kanji, or possibly fontconfig is misconfigured. Your distro will be better able to guide you to ascertaining if there is truly a bug. Worth mentioning is that I am able to see/use 絵 (and indeed, many other kanji) in kwrite without trouble. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- missing japanese kanji in font 'Monospace' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285334 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
