Japanese Team makes the Japanese characters look precisely the way I
have them configured above. The problem is that if I use their release,
the English characters look different and I don't like that. My
.font.conf file takes both of the settings and makes the fonts appear as
they should.

It's probably due to DejaVu Sans being prepended at the top of the prepend
list. Maybe that can be fixed. IMO it is not needed there; and maybe prepend
shouldn't be used.

Well, as you can see from the long duration of this bug, I had the same
issue even before the Ubuntu fonts were included in Ubuntu, when DejaVu
fonts were still used as the default. So while I don't know the
technical details of this, I'm not exactly sure if it is just a matter

agrueneberg and Benedikt's problem is due to embedded bitmap not
disabled. Using 'sudo fontconfig-voodoo -l ja_JP' or 'sudo ln -s
/etc/fonts/conf.avail/69-language-selector-ja-jp.conf -t
/etc/fonts/conf.d/' will remedy it.
In Sancho's case, it seems the default is to select a chinese font
Any updates on this bug? It's been exactly 5 years since this bug report
was first opened! (not to mention that there hasn't been any progress
since...)
I will post the most current version of '.fonts.conf' I use (since there
have been some updates in Ubuntu for both Latin and Japanese fonts).
Benedikt, what are you complaining about specifically? Your screenshot
looks fine to me.

Well if you've seen Japanese fonts with proper rendering, you would know what
is wrong with the fonts in his screenshot.
With my configuration I put above, the fonts look like this

I can confirm this for lucid. Here's a screenshot what the front page of

I should add that I have activated hintslight as hintstyle for all
fonts in ~/.fonts.conf in order to get proper sub-pixel hinting in
Firefox in the first place. Adding areteichi's configuration for
Japanese fonts fixes the problem for me.

@agrueneberg, sorry for the delayed reply but please could you check if
this issue is still affecting you under latest release included in
Ubuntu Lucid? Thanks in advance.

Flash Player problem can be solved by using the latest Flash Player beta.

Yeah it is quite frustrating how little attention this problem is
receiving. The only problem with the fix is that Japanese characters
turn into squares in adobe flash player. I've played around with the
.font.conf and the only way to avoid that is to go back to the ugly,
unpolished fonts either
I'm also using both japanese and english, with the default english
install.
The fonts seemed to be just missing geometry in some of the more
complicated kanji... I'm not a native japanese speaker, but I *think* it
was just because the fonts were bad, and not a legitimate variation in
the font.

How can your solution be done in Ubuntu 9.10?
I am unable to find fonts.conf or language-selector.conf.
I guess the method of setting the configuration has been changed in a more
recent Ubuntu version?
Can anyone offer me help?

Ok, I was able to fix everything the way I had wanted.
I looked at some of the comments made for this bug

There, someone mentions that:
it's not the fonts which cause these issues, it's the fontconfig configuration

I found the same problem too in KDE since Edgy (until now: Gutsy). I've been
using Japanese in English environment. Because I just want to learn Japanese. I
found that some of the Japanese characters are unreadable. They look like some
characters is missing. But later I try this:
