This however is an awful implementation for CJK-oriented fonts, because for these fonts, what the user would like to see are the Chinese characters/Japanese kanas/Korean hanguls part of the content, not Roman alphabets. In some CJK fonts that have their contents exclusively on Chinese characters/Japanese kanas/Korean hanguls, "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" sample text simply appears as a bunch of black blocks (see attached picture). This is nowhere helpful for the user to preview the font's content.
