--- Comment #4 from Michal Suchanek hramrach@centrum.cz 2008-06-03 08:26:27 --- So if I understand it correctly the fact that I do not see the characters correctly at least for the current locale is a bug in font linking.
IE if I run an application that uses Japanese characters such as the one attached in bug 11281 I have to manually map the system fonts to some fonts that actually do contain glyphs for Japanese characters. And I also get the ugly Latin glyphs from these Japanese fonts then.
And no, you cannot possibly ask authors of fonts for every obscure language to also add glyphs for all the other mainstream and obscure languages to their font so that their font is a most complete uber-font.
Even if you did different people have different preferences for the shape of the font glyphs in different ranges.
