"AR PL UKai" Chinese Unicode TrueType font collection Kaiti style

"AR PL UKai" is a high-quality Chinese Unicode TrueType font collection (ukai.ttc) derieved from the original "AR PL KaitiM Big5" and "AR PL KaitiM GB" fonts generously provided by Arphic Technology to the Free Software community under the "Arphic Public License".

It has been extended from the original "AR PL KaitiM Big5" and "AR PL KaitiM GB" fonts with additional glyphs now covering ISO8859-1,2,3,4,9,10,13,14,15, BIG5, GB2312-80 and HKSCS-2004. It also includes Bopomofo Extensions for Hakka and Minnan according to the Unicode 5.0 standard and MBE variants of those glyphs.

Support for CNS 11643, GBK, GB 18030, Japanese and Korean is under heavy development. Users who need more Han glyphs than provided by GB2312 and Big5 or who need support for Chinese minority languages may want to install this font package.

This font is an alternative to the fonts-arphic-bkai00mp and fonts-arphic-gkai00mp font packages.
