With a recent GTK port built on Ubuntu Hardy, I find that GtkLauncher fails to display Chinese characters correctly for some Chinese pages. For example, on www.baidu.com (gb2312), some Chinese characters show up as squares. However, if I use font-family in the HTML to switch to a Chinese font such as 宋体 for the text to be displayed, the characters show up correctly. On Firefox, the Chinese characters are displayed correctly without this tweak.
I'm guessing that for the Chinese text, the browser is failing to switch to a font that has the Chinese glyphs and continues to use some default font that doesn't have the necessary glyphs. Is this a bug? How can it be fixed? Is this something about pango configuration or fontconfig? Maybe I can somehow set the default font to one that has the glyphs for most languages? Assuming I have that font, how can I change the default? Josh
