Not all UTF-8 fonts cover the entire Unicode character space, it's a big space with thousands of characters. It's also not just a matter of fonts, there is the character encoding to consider as well. My copy of Firefox has 8 different character encodings covering 3 different variations of Chinese, and each of those can have 4 different fonts. That's not including the 7 variations on generic Unicode encodings. On the other hand, you mentioned that you have taken care of the character encoding already. Since YDL is essentially an English language Linux distro, with TSS having too small a staff to cater to all the worlds languages, or even a small fraction of the most popular languages, my advice is to speak with other Chinese Firefox users and see what solutions they have come up with. I neither speak nor read Chinese, so I can't really offer much advice. Both my YDL boxes are currently tied up with some testing so that I can't check those web pages right now from YDL. I'll check them under YDL later. A font called DejaVu may help.
