Default Thai Fonts in Firefox 3

Submitted by mk on 6 February, 2008 - 20:52

Dear all Thai Firefox users,

Please take a look in this bug. It's about default Thai font set in Firefox 3 for all major platforms (Win, Mac, Linux). It's your last chance to discuss if you don't agree in the proposed set.

Current proposal:

  • Win: Tahoma for all typeset
  • Linux: Theppitak proposed this set (I have no objection):
    • Serif: Kinnari
    • San-serif: Loma
    • Monospace: Tlwg Typist
  • Mac: I currently don't have Mac for test. Waiting for other comments.

For Mac, I heard about Thai issues on Leopard but have never tried by myself. Could Mac users provide any information on bug comment?

ใช้ตามนี้ก็ไม่มีปัญหานะคะ

Thonburi, Krungthep, Ayuthaya for serif, san-serif, and monospace is
maybe the best choice because these fonts are included in 10.3[1], 10.4[2], and
10.5[3]. So, they guarantee that FF will be able to display Thai text
correctly on most OS X installation.

For Win, I'm voting for Microsoft Sans Serif or MS Sans Serif. There's one that is TrueType font.
