Hi there, recently installed a bunch of CJK fonts from AUR and my Korean and Chinese characters are fine but my Japanese font seems to be really jagged and ugly looking. How do I fix this?
Running XFCE if that helps!

Hi,
Have you checked that you have these fonts installed?

Cheers!
I have these and I can see japanese characters perfectly and with a nice antialiasing:

Hi there, I’ve just installed all of these fonts but I’m still having the same problem. At a total loss on what to do.
Hi,
Read this carefully: https://gist.github.com/cryzed/e002e7057435f02cc7894b9e748c5671#creating-an-infinality-like-fontconfig-configuration
And here you have the local.conf file: https://gist.github.com/cryzed/4f64bb79e80d619866ee0b18ba2d32fc
Save it as /etc/fonts/local.conf
Cheers!
That’s done the trick, moreso adding the CJK lines to the local.conf as was suggested by someone below. Now looks nice and clean.
Thanks for all the help!
