Asian Fonts Not Rendered on Webpages #71

Closed RichieMcG closed 6 years ago

RichieMcG commented 6 years ago

This issue is present in both FireFox Dev Edition and FireFox nightly.

Previously Chinese, Korean and Japanese fonts were rendered and now they are not. A search was made for fixes but was unsuccessful.

I'm sorry I hadn't updated for a while, so I can't say exactly it broke but the previous version I used wasn't sandboxed and it rendered Asian characters correctly.

The current edition displays square boxes with hex code inside.

1 install cjk fonts 2 try run below: flatpak --command=bash run org.mozilla.FirefoxNightly fc-cache -f

this problem is font cache not updated with the base system fonts

Thanks a lot @henglinli I did try refreshing the cache before but I didn't run flatpak --command=bash run org.mozilla.FirefoxNightly before running fc-cache -f.

I tried this for the Developers Edition and it worked a treat.
