My personal application is in R, where I have a data set with chinese characters as well as roman in it, and when draw the plots in PNG, the font WenQuanYi is used since my default font for the roman language has no character for the chinese (I use extrafont to use my roman font, but there is no way to specify a font for each language when plotting). WenQuanYi Micro Hei Mono,文泉驛等寬微米黑,文泉驿等宽微米黑īut how do set up my system to use them as soon as the chinese characters are required ? I have downloaded, for instance, the chinese fonts AR PL UMing which I like better than the default font WenQuanYi fc-list ':lang=zh-CN:scalable=true' family I do not like the default fonts for these languages in linux mint 17.1, but I like the fonts for the latin languages.
