We have fontconfig-voodoo for this case as a workaround. Language-selector contains fontconfig snippets for each region and the command line script fontconfig-voodoo which puts one of those in place, depending on the locale you give it as an argument. See 'fontconfig-voodoo -h'. > Or there may be another solution: make a unique font which looks good > in all CJK characters... That is highly desirable, but unfortunately simply impossible as long as each region (China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Korea) has their own definition on how the glyphs should look like. The glyphs look different in each region, but share the same codepoints. This has finally prompted Unicode to publish the Code charts regarding CJK as multi-column tables, which list all the different shapes [1]. Therefor it's technically impossible.
