ttf-wqy-zenhei is a new excellent Hei Ti Chinese font included in Hardy. I find it's mixing up or conflicting with xfonts-wqy (Wenquanyi Bitmap Song font), which makes Chinese text inconsistent and ugly.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Boot Hardy beta desktop CD in English mode. Open firefox and browse Chinese websites, you'll notice that the same Chinese font is used in web pages, address bar, bookmarks, etc.
2. After installing Hardy beta onto the harddisk, you'll find that firefox and other applications no longer use the same Chinese font as usual. For example, the firefox address bar and some Chinese web pages use wqy-zenhei, while other Chinese web pages use xfons-wqy. This inconsistency is very annoying for Chinese users. Small truetype wqy-zenhei font is actually jagged and hard to read.
One workaround I found is to remove the symbolic link /etc/fonts/conf.d/63-wqy-zenhei.conf by typing:
$ sudo mv /etc/fonts/conf.d/63-wqy-zenhei.conf /root
and then restart Gnome. After do this, Chinese text display returns to normal. |

If the Ubuntu CJK team considers wqy-zenhei is the best font, please make it the default for serif as well. Otherwise, different chinese fonts will be used on the same website and even on the same web page where the same font style is expected. This is the status quo.
Is it because of wqy's GPL license that you chose zenhei? I really doubt it's a general consensus that wqy-zenhei is the best font, visually speaking, for Chinese users. |

ttf-wqy-zenhei: statusexplanation |
Again, I suggest adding "WenQuanYi Zen Hei" to the accept list for the Aliases for Simplified Chinese Windows fonts, so that UMing and ZenHei have less chances to mix up. See attachment 30-cjk-aliases.conf.diff. Thanks |
