context_page_description: This is a list of notable CJK fonts. These fonts are primarily sorted by their typeface, the main classes being "with serif", "without serif" and "script". In this article, the two first classes are named Ming and sans-serif while the "script" is further divided into several Chinese script styles.
  The fonts are then sorted by their target writing system:
  Chinese: Chinese character
  Japanese: kanji, hiragana and katakana
  Korean: Hangul, hanja, etc.
  Vietnamese: for the Nom script formerly used
  Zhuang: for Sawndip
  Pan-Unicode: intended to globally support the majority of Unicode's characters, and not specifically designed for one or a few writing systems
  Pan-CJK: intended to support the majority of Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters, and not specifically designed for any one of these writing systems
  [F] means this font is free and open-source software; [F] means it was formerly seen as FOSS but has been involved in a legal controversy.
