Bug ID: 1340767 Summary: [RFE] Please consider to use PANGO_LANGUAGE for GNOME Desktop in fonts-tweak-tool Product: Fedora Version: 23 Component: fonts-tweak-tool Assignee: tagoh@redhat.com Reporter: pwu@redhat.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: i18n-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org, kent.neo@gmail.com, petersen@redhat.com, pwu@redhat.com, tagoh@redhat.com
Recently some Chinese user reports that they use English locale by default, But still want to use Chinese when reading/writing.
For GNOME 3.x, when use FC_LANG=zh_CN in ~/.i18n, the English character becomes slightly bolder. With PANGO_LANGUAGE=zh_CN in ~/.i18n, the English character is the same.
Please evaluate it, thanks!

--- Comment #6 from Akira TAGOH tagoh@redhat.com --- Thanks. hmm, does FC_LANG=en:zh_CN give you the same result?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1340767
--- Comment #7 from Peng Wu pwu@redhat.com --- Yes, it looks similar.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1340767
--- Comment #8 from Akira TAGOH tagoh@redhat.com --- Then I'd suggest to add English prior to Chinese on fonts-tweak-tool. that should works unless applications uses rich rendering libraries like pango and Qt which supports the sort of the font sets. this is because pango takes care of ascii characters separately and requests an English font unless you explicitly override that behavior in the font configuration.

--- Comment #9 from Peng Wu pwu@redhat.com --- Thanks, it is a good solution for Chinese locale by adding English first.
