wqy-bitmap-fonts - WenQuanYi Bitmap Chinese Fonts

Description:

The Wen Quan Yi bitmap fonts include complete CJK Unified
Ideograph (U4E00 - U9FA5) glyphs at four different sizes
(9pt-12X12 pixel, 10pt-13X13 pixel, 11pt-15X15 pixel,
12pt-16x16 pixel) and two weights (medium and bold).
Use of these bitmap fonts for on-screen display of Chinese
(traditional and simplified) in web pages and elsewhere
eliminates the annoying "blurring" problem caused by
the high stroke density of many Chinese characters and
insufficient "hinting" of anti-aliased Chinese fonts.
These fonts also provide bitmap glyphs for Japanese
Hiragana (U3040 - U309F), Katakana (U30A0 - U30FF)
and for Korean Hangul (UAC00 - UD7A3).
