Description Flywater 2018-11-17 09:49:20 UTC
Description:
I'm using Archlinux with Gnome Shell in Simplified Chinese language.
Libreoffice was installed from Archlinux's repository.
If I install wqy-zenhei.ttc font, system will default to wqy-zenhei font and libreoffice can display UI text correctly, but will too lag to use known in my last bug report.
But if I uninstall wqy-zenhei font and system will use adobe-source-han-sans-otc font or noto-fonts-cjk font instead, but libreoffice will display UI text in japanese style chinese font.
However, if I make new writer document, the default font in text format is Simplified Chinese font indeed. And other softwares in my system display UI text correctly.
So, I think the reason maybe is libreoffice is using japanese font to display chinese UI.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.change UI language to Simplified Chinese
2.install adobe-source-han-sans-otc font or noto-fonts-cjk font and don't install wqy-zenhei font
3.open libreoffice and look for the chinese text write differently in chinese and japanese

Actual Results:
UI text displayed in japanese style

Expected Results:
UI text displayed in chinese style


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Hi, I have found where is this bug.
The bug is relate with noto-fonts-cjk package in Archlinux don't have links to .conf files. So this is not libreoffice's bug. Thank you.
