Fonts with Chinese characters?

[charlesroddie]

How hard would it be to allow Chinese text in text mode?
Would this be done by allowing the usage of an arbitrary font?
Would there be any additional work needed?

Loading a font that supports Chinese glyphs into CSharpMath.Settings.GlobalTypefaces or (Some TextPainter/MathPainter).LocalTypefaces via new Typography.OpenFont.OpenFontReader().Read(stream) should work.

By the way, as shown in the bottom of the README, I plan to create a CSharpMath.Fonts package that would be a collection of fonts to support all Unicode codepoints in 0.2.0.

Did that method work?

I can't read it but it looks to me like it works:

The text definitely makes sense. That means it is definitely working! 👏

By the way, the number should use a dot (.) as the decimal separator. Maybe it should depend on the Chinese CultureInfo specifically instead of the default CurrentCulture of ToString?

I think that's because it was done on @FoggyFinder 's system using Russian settings.

That makes sense. Guess it isn't all that important.
