Hey. Thank you for the example. I was wondering, do you know of an open font that supports a wide set of languages so we could use that as default? Also see #219 and #238. I think NotoSans might qualify, but I didn't have time to look into it.
It would be great if most languages worked "out of the box" with the default font.

I think we might merge #315 instead. Arabic also allows for tokenization, for Chinese we really can't do tokenization in wordcloud from what I understand. We could add an example using a third party library maybe?
