What you probably want here is to prefer fonts which support Chinese to those supporting only Japanese or Korean. What I do is ensure that in the face of no language information provided by the application, I add *both* English and Japanese to the pattern. This pushes English-supporting fonts to the fore and while Japanese-supporting fonts follow along afterwards: <!-- set desired language if unset --> <match target="pattern" > <test compare="eq" name="lang" qual="all" > <string>unset</string> </test> <edit name="lang" > <string>en</string> <string>ja</string> </edit> </match> The <test> is a bit misleading -- it's checking to see if no language was set at all by ensuring that 'all' of the settings are equal to 'unset'; the only way that could be true is if there were no settings at all. Replace 'en' with your own language, and 'ja' with your preferred form of Chinese, one of zh-cn, zh-hk, zh-mo, zh-sg or zh-tw. Thinking in languages instead of font families seems indirect, but we haven't come up with a better way to specify what purpose the fonts are intended for. -- keith.packard@xxxxxxxxx
