Is there a "standard" equivalent pair of serif/sans-serif fonts for CJK the way Times-Roman and Helvetica are for latin letters ? I am usingCODE2000 at the moment, but it is not that great at 12pt and is serifed whichis not so good as the default font for the menus.
From my personal experience, the latin letters in CJK fonts are generally ugly,
and they are all serif (I don't know why). If you have legal Windows 2000, maybe you can find a font called "SimSun", which is a Traditional Chinese font, but also contains Japanese glyph. I think it is good look at 12pt in latin. Check the last two images at http://www.people.virginia.edu/~yc2w/GNUstep/screenshots/back.html Maybe you need to install Traditional Chinese support to get this font.
