  • xfonts-intl-chinese - international fonts for X - Chinese
  • xfonts-intl-chinese-big - international chinese
  • fonts-cns11643-kai - Chinese TrueType font, TW-Kai
  • fonts-cns11643-sung - Chinese TrueType font, TW-Sung
  • fonts-moe-standard-kai - Chinese TrueType font, standard Song (non-free)
