Incorrect font used for some Chinese characters

[hkunzhe]

Current behavior

Some Chinese words doesn't render normally in preview area and other area except code editor.

My own setting for Editor Font Family is "Hack", "Source Han Sans CN Medium", and the same for Preview Font Family.

As the screenshoot shown that "修改与分类“ doesn't render normally as code editor area.

Expected behavior

The font family in the preview area should be render as set in the preferences Preview Font Family.

Steps to reproduce

1. Set both Editor Font Family and Preview Font Family to "Hack", "Source Han Sans CN Medium".
2. Type some Chinese words, like "修改与分类“.
3. Watch out note list area and preview area.

Environment

• Version : v0.13.0
• OS Version and name : Manjaro Linux

It seems that the mis-rendering font family is Sans Regular in my Manjaro Linux，which is probably set by default.

So how can I customize it?

The characters seem to render just fine in the screenshot provided. They are merely pushed to the next line due to lack of space.

As for the font, I can't quite tell the difference between the fonts, so I have no clue if the correct font is used. Could you maybe provide a side by side of the the character in the wrong font and in the right font?

Note: I could be mistaken, since I don't know any Chinese.

@Flexo013 , thanks for your reply.

The character above is "分" rendered by previous area, and the character below is "分" rendered by text editor area (it correctly render by Source Han Sans CN Medium). There is slightly difference as the sreenshoot shown, but I have set the same font "Hack", "Source Han Sans CN Medium" for both Editor Font Family and Preview Font Family.

I have very little knowledge about web development. I think the reason is probably caused by the style sheet below

@font-face {
      font-family: 'OpenSans';
      src: url('../resources/fonts/Lato-Regular.woff2') format('woff2'), /* Modern Browsers */
      url('../resources/fonts/Lato-Regular.woff') format('woff'), /* Modern Browsers */
      url('../resources/fonts/Lato-Regular.ttf') format('truetype');
      font-style: normal;
      font-weight: normal;
      text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;
    }

Therefore, changing Previous Font Family in preferences doesn't take effect.

老哥，问一下怎么从编辑器里修改字体啊，我试了试
直接这样输入好像修改不了

[Flexo013]

@Sshzh Could you provide English information? That way other can more easily pick up this issue.

[Sshzh]

@Flexo013 Sorry about this, I just want to ask him a question and I'm not good at English.That's why I used Chinese.....
I didn't find any specific description about the font settings，so I try to put the font's name in the input field.

However this setting does not take effect, so I want to know how can I set the font correctly. thanks!

@Sshzh, Try to set the value to "Consolas", "Source Han Sans CN Normal" and it should work. Maybe you have to change "Source Han Sans CN Normal" to "Microsoft YaHei" if you are using Windows.

[Sshzh]

@hkunzhe It's still not working....

[hkunzhe]

@Sshzh Please check if you have installed Consolas and Microsoft YaHei by doing fc-list.

[Sshzh]

Yes I have installed them,but still not working ... I have given up ...
