It's a web browser only issue. In other cases such as a text processor document or local app a font is explicitly used by any run of text so there is no problem. This issue is the web being what it is, most of the time there is no font explicitly specified for text and the browser use a Chinese-looking font to display any Chinese characters.
- eska 5y agoIt’s not just a web browser issue. For example I’m transferring data in multiple Asian languages through some network API. I always need to specify the locale of the text data in a separate data field so that some UI program at the end can display the text correctly. And even then that’s not perfect, because that’s just the system locale instead of the IME locale.
