Summary: Japanese fonts changed to less readable after update

Summary: Japanese fonts changed to less readable after update Product: Fedora Version: 10 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: low Priority: low Component: vlgothic-fonts AssignedTo: ryo-dairiki@users.sourceforge.net ReportedBy: mcmonster@o2.pl QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: tagoh@redhat.com, ryo-dairiki@users.sourceforge.net, fedora-fonts-bugs-list@redhat.com, fedora-i18n-bugs@redhat.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora

I'm using irssi on gnome-terminal (Monospace font), after update Japanese fonts changed, they're now much smaller (compared to latin), harder to read (some ideograms are completely unreadable). It is very annoying, because I use Japanese and sit on Japanese channel a lot. The change occured only in terminal, in gEdit and other applications old fonts are still used for typing (SCIM + Anthy) and displaying.
The change didn't affect everyone, some Fedora 10 still got old, simple and readable fonts.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce: Just try displaying any Japanese text.
This is the update, that probably changed fonts:
