Somewhere around the 3.0-3.5 timeframe Firefox changed how they look up fonts and this issue was introduced.

I have seen this issue with every version of Windows since XP and every version of Firefox since 3.5.

I have a default installation of Firefox and I have not played around with its fonts or css or font-stack settings.

I also have Microsoft Office 2010 installed which may add some fonts of its own.

I have a default installation of Windows 7 with support for Asian scripts and input methods and have not added or removed any fonts.

Otherwise, a webfont might have to be used in order to ensure that a particular client has support for the font in question, but that web font would need excellent coverage of the Hanzi range.Įdit: Some answers seem to suggest that I may be dealing with a faulty set-up. The way to fix this is to specify the language of the text And for some reason Firefox prefers Japanese to Chinese, thus breaking the rendering of the Chinese characters. This happens because the browser tries to find installed fonts based on what language it suspects the characters are. I noticed that when the Chinese characters are shown in headlines and other places sometimes my browser (Firefox 8 on Windows 7) is mixing and matching fonts in order to fill in the right characters.
