CJK Extension B Chinese fonts for Firefox
 

The link below [1] points to a page that tests the display of Chinese
characters.

With Firefox on Fedora 14 I can display correctly Traditional Chinese,
Simplified Chinese, and CJK Extension A characters, however of the 4
CJK Extension B characters only one is displayed correctly. The
character encoding is set as Unicode UTF-8 (I have not changed this).

Does anybody know how I can fix this? I do have the "Chinese Support"
group installed (I think it is installed by default).

You can get closer by installing hanazono-fonts. As in 3 out of 4.

I have the similar problem. It seems that some characters in "CJK Extension B"
is still not included in main fonts.(WenQuanYi xxx or AR PL xxx)
see http://wenq.org

Yes, correct.

I also downloaded the zip file with the Han Nom fonts from [1] as
recommended in [2].

In contains two TTF files. I put them in the folder ~/.fonts and now
the four test characters are displayed correctly.

As well as the missing characters, there are still a lot of places where
something readable is shown, but it looks really ugly. Typically a mix
of fonts are being used. For example, on my FC14 box å¼*å�¯å¾· displays
badly, because the å¼* is obviously from a different character set.
Oddly, it not only looks different, but is also considerably smaller
than �德.

Yes, I also noticed that the fonts display differently.

After I installed Han Nom it appeared to me that it looked crisper
than hanazono-fonts, so I uninstalled the latter (though I don't know
what character sets they cover so it is good to know about
hanazono-fonts as I may need them some day to display Japanese
characters).

On my PC the first character of the sequence å¼*å�¯å¾· does indeed look less
nice and from a different font than the other two, though they are all
of the same size, even at different font sizes all the way to 72
points.

I noticed this in gedit and gnome-terminal on fedora 13/14, but no
problem in firefox.
Some CJK characters in gedit or gnome-terminal are smaller than other,
I don't know
what causes this on fedora. I have no problem in openSuse/Ubuntu/Debian.
Sorry for my poor English.
