Description philipp.lohmann 2003-07-02 15:32:33 UTC 
This is due to a missing entry in the default font lists for chinese; the
default font falls back to english where Vera is appropriate.
Comment 1 philipp.lohmann 2003-07-02 15:35:15 UTC 
working on it
Comment 2 philipp.lohmann 2003-07-07 13:05:06 UTC 
checked in chinese font lists in CWS ooo11rc2
Comment 3 philipp.lohmann 2003-07-16 11:22:34 UTC 
pl->us: fixed in CWS ooo11rc2; this was fixed by adding "Ming" and
"Kai" to the SANS_UI font lists for chinese. This definitely works on
solaris as these fonts are installed with the chinese locales but may
fail on different Linux versions (which can basically have any font as
their UI font). Until we find a dynamic solution for this please file
issues to add suitable fonts to the SANS_UI lists whenever you find a
distribution where OOo comes up without UI font.
Comment 4 ulf.stroehler 2003-07-16 17:06:33 UTC 
Works in general.
Fails only for locale zh_CN.EUC aka GB2312.

I'd recommend to add the folowing fonts also, which are available as
scalable fonts at least in all simplified chinese locales:

fangsong
hei
song

Setting to FIXED in order to get it into RC2.
Filing a follow up for zh_CN.EUC aka GB2312 on Target 1.1.1
