Package: ttf-vlgothic Version: 20080624-1 Severity: normal
This way you can see, how poorly this font performs, when it is used for reading some typographical symbols of japanese language: You must have some locale that uses UTF-8 and everything else must be UTF-8-clean. Give this command: uxterm -fa 'VL Gothic' -fs 12 & Make that terminal-emulator fullscreen. Then give this command in that (u)xterm: w3m 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_typographic_symbols' When you scroll down, you see some boxes instead of real symbols.
