    Install Asian Fonts on Traditional Linux Install Packages
    In This Topic

    Introduction

    DEPRECATION NOTICE: While we currently continue to offer and support traditional Linux packages for direct installation on a Linux host, these have largely become obsolete now that Docker deployment is an option. We have announced deprecation of our traditional Linux install packages and, in a future product release, we intend to only offer our Docker-based deployment option. The rest of this topic applies to traditional Linux install packages only.

    This section contains important information for installing Asian fonts:

    Red Hat and CentOS

    By default, Asian language support is not installed on the RHEL / CentOS systems. In order to properly render documents with Asian fonts, support for corresponding languages should be installed. There is a single Fonts package which includes support for these languages:

    Example

    # yum groupinstall Fonts
    
    

    Ubuntu

    By default, Asian language support is not installed on Ubuntu systems. In order to properly render documents with Asian fonts, support for corresponding languages should be installed.

    To install Japanese language support, run following commands:

    Example

    # sudo apt-get install language-pack-ja
    # sudo apt-get install japan*
    
    

    To install Chinese language support, run following commands:

    Example

    # sudo apt-get install language-pack-zh
    # sudo apt-get install chinese*
    
    

    To install Korean language support, run following commands:

    Example

    # sudo apt-get install language-pack-ko
    # sudo apt-get install korean*
    
    

    And finally, you will need to add additional fonts:

    Example

    # sudo apt-get install fonts-arphic-ukai fonts-arphic-uming fonts-ipafont-mincho fonts-ipafont-gothic fonts-unfonts-core
    
    

    NOTE: If PrizmDoc Viewer was running when you installed language/font support, you must restart PrizmDoc Viewer in order to apply the changes.
