Hi Mingye, Trying to understand the issue.
In Ubuntu 14.04 the fonts-droid package is installed by default for everyone, and also part of the Chinese language support. Droid Sans Fallback should be the default font for Chinese web contents as far as fontconfig is concerned. $ lsb_release -ds Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS $ LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 fc-match -s | head DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book" DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold" DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Oblique" DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold Oblique" n019003l.pfb: "Nimbus Sans L" "Regular" Waree.ttf: "Waree" "Book" DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf: "Droid Sans Fallback" "Regular" ukai.ttc: "AR PL UKai CN" "Book" ukai.ttc: "AR PL UKai HK" "Book" uming.ttc: "AR PL UMing CN" "Light" Is this possibly another Chromium/Chrome specific issue? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fonts-arphic-ukai in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1595414 Title: Awful system-wise generic selection for CJK Status in fonts-arphic-ukai package in Ubuntu: New Status in fonts-arphic-uming package in Ubuntu: New Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: New Status in fonts-arphic-ukai source package in Trusty: New Status in fonts-arphic-uming source package in Trusty: New Status in language-selector source package in Trusty: New Bug description: In https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/wily/fonts- arphic-ukai/wily/revision/6, UMing and UKai are set as generics for fonts. However, this set of generics is completely intolerable -- setting UKai as a generic is like setting Zapfino and/or Comic Sans as a system-wise generic, while UMing as a normal (just a bit thin) serif sounds a bit better. This yields terrible results on non-Chinese systems with non-Chinese lang-attributed websites, like Twitter, on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS after installing Chinese language support which includes the two arphic fonts mentioned in this report. This problem is similar to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20911, a long-standing system-global fontconfig non-latin fallback problem. See also bug #1560548 where these generic settings are considered as 'redundant' and proposed for deletion. I have mentioned a third-person report about such selection in #1560548 previously, but I have just reproduced this bug by myself by installing zh-cn support by mistake.
