With Firefox on Fedora 14 I can display correctly Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and CJK Extension A characters, however of the 4 CJK Extension B characters only one is displayed correctly. The character encoding is set as Unicode UTF-8 (I have not changed this).
Does anybody know how I can fix this? I do have the "Chinese Support" group installed (I think it is installed by default).

You can get closer by installing hanazono-fonts. As in 3 out of 4.

Yes, correct.
I also downloaded the zip file with the Han Nom fonts from [1] as recommended in [2].
In contains two TTF files. I put them in the folder ~/.fonts and now the four test characters are displayed correctly.

I have the similar problem. It seems that some characters in "CJK Extension B" is still not included in main fonts.(WenQuanYi xxx or AR PL xxx) see http://wenq.org

As well as the missing characters, there are still a lot of places where something readable is shown, but it looks really ugly. Typically a mix of fonts are being used. For example, on my FC14 box 张启德 displays badly, because the 张 is obviously from a different character set. Oddly, it not only looks different, but is also considerably smaller than 启德.

Yes, I also noticed that the fonts display differently.
After I installed Han Nom it appeared to me that it looked crisper than hanazono-fonts, so I uninstalled the latter (though I don't know what character sets they cover so it is good to know about hanazono-fonts as I may need them some day to display Japanese characters).
On my PC the first character of the sequence 张启德 does indeed look less nice and from a different font than the other two, though they are all of the same size, even at different font sizes all the way to 72 points.

I noticed this in gedit and gnome-terminal on fedora 13/14, but no problem in firefox. Some CJK characters in gedit or gnome-terminal are smaller than other, I don't know what causes this on fedora. I have no problem in openSuse/Ubuntu/Debian. Sorry for my poor English.
