Public bug reported: The default fontconfig.properties is not working properly for Japanese. There are several issues,
- chinese fonts are being used in Japanese locale because of this line sequence.allfonts.UTF-8=latin-1,chinese-gb18030 this should be prepared per language. For Japanese case, it should be sequence.allfonts.UTF-8.ja=latin-1,japanese-x0208 (See my comment in Korean font issue - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6/+bug/113494) - default font is defined as "sazanami-gothic" and "sazanami-mincho", but these are not default fonts in Japanese desktop These should be changed to ipamona fonts like filename.-ipamona-uigothic-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1983-0=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ipamona/ipagui-mona.ttf filename.-ipamona-mincho-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1983-0=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ipamona/ipamp-mona.ttf awtfontpath.japanese-x0208=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ipamona/ I will attach the diffs later. ** Affects: sun-java6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- fontconfig.properties needs to be updated for Japanese https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115573 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
