Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - ezzetabi - 2016-01-31 I am using kanji koohii to brush up the kanji I study with the Heisig books, but for some reasons the font I see on the flashcard is somewhat strange. For example, the character for "outside" (外) appears with the last stroke crossing the fourth one. In my system I have different fonts for Japanese (mostly from this page), I am not sure why the browser decides to use that one. So it would be possible to change the default font of the flashcard? RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - jmignot - 2016-02-01 What system / browser are you using ? RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - ezzetabi - 2016-02-01 The font used is Noto Sans it seems... System / broweser: Archlinux / Chromium 48.0.2564.97. What has this to do with anything anyway? RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - Sebastian - 2016-02-02 Changing fonts in review cards has been a request for many years. There was upon a time a Greasemonkey script to do that, but it didn't last much long afaik. I second the motion for creating a setting to choose from any font installed in the computer/smartphone, or at least give a kyoukasho style option. RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - Wurstmann - 2016-02-02 I don't understand why there isn't a Japanese font set for the forum, too. I see Chinese characters everywhere because of this. It should not be difficult to include some Japanese fonts in the font-family tag... RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - ezzetabi - 2016-02-02 For chromium (and chome I suppose) I found a solution. The extension stylebot allows to apply css on the fly. So I simply added this lines for the main site: span.cj-k { font-family: "EPSON 教科書体Ｍ"; } for the forum: div.post_body { font-family: "Liberation Sans", "EPSON 太角ゴシック体Ｂ"; } And now I see nice fonts The fonts come from the page linked in the first post, but you can use your favorite starting from this lines. Edit: changed the flashcard font from kaisho to kyokaisho. RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - Wurstmann - 2016-02-02 Thanks for the tip! Works really well RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - ezzetabi - 2016-02-02 Too bad I have no idea how to do the same for my phone... Edit: I actually managed to copy the fonts to my phone just to discover that Chrome for Android does not support extensions. Sigh Edit(2): Firefox for Android can use the Stylish add-on, but I did not find a way to add my own .css file with ease. The only option is "install from URL," but even using a url like file : // /Documents / kanji_koohii.css have no apparent effect. RE: Feature request, change font for the flashcard characters - ezzetabi - 2016-02-04 It might be interesting to use this font too, as it shows the stroke order.
