Chinese font in IOS.

Mandarinboy   June 24th, 2012 8:41a.m.

Is it possible to change the font used in the IOS app? It is normally looking great but i have this word: 监狱 jiānyu (prison, jail), where the 讠yán part in 狱 seems way to long so it reaches in to the left 犭 quǎn. There are also a few other where those aesthetic style behavior are present. For this word it is actually looking OK when the whole words is shown but not when you have just the character,狱

Mandarin Boy,

Do you have the latest build of iOS? I type in 监狱 on my iTouch and it seems to look the same on my computer.

Also, you can't change the Chinese font in iOS. However, in iOS6 there are a lot of changes to be introduced for Chinese users - you might be able to then.

We have embedded a separate Chinese font within the app, which can't really be changed, so I don't think there's any help for 狱.
