The Chinese fonts aren't very good.  It makes me wonder what distros
that support Chinese, such as Red Flag and Turbo Linux, do.  Generally,
I haven't got a lot of response to Chinese-related issues here; it would
be nice if Red Hat had a list devoted to that or international issues.
The
previous i18n list was just for translators of documentation, and it
closed
down in part because they didn't like posts like this.

Right now, the Red Hat Server is down so I can't find the web
address of previous emails I submitted.  Search for those

Adding Chinese TrueType font

Also, these web sites have some helpful, but slightly dated info:
