<p>This is a very obnoxious problem and good fonts are hard to find and identify. I recommend using <a href="https://www.babelstone.co.uk/Software/BabelMap.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">BabelMap</a> (Windows, runs under Wine on Linux); you get a window with a grid showing characters for all the Unicode code points. You can select a CJK block (e.g. CJK Unified Ideographs Extension C) and the app will display all characters present in the selected font. Now, crucially, to select the font you can use the &quot;configure&quot; button which opens a dialogue that lists all the fonts offered by the OS together with their code point coverage, which you can sort by number of code points; it also tells you how many code points the respective block has defined so you can easily judge what the fonts with the best coverage are.</p>

<p>I am rendering unicode characters, with the Noto Sans series of CJK fonts, and they are missing lots of characters (notice the bar-boxes, and the serif styled glyphs, as opposed to the Sans Serif Noto glyphs).</p>

<p>Not even the fallback chain of <code>Noto Sans SC, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif</code> fills in the missing glyphs.</p>
<p>What are some fonts which can cover <em>all</em> (or most) unicode Chinese glyphs? Maybe even several fonts to cover the ones each font is missing, but the fonts are close?</p>

I am rendering unicode characters, with the Noto Sans series of CJK fonts, and they are missing lots of characters (notice the bar-boxes, and the serif styled glyphs, as opposed to the Sans Serif Noto glyphs).

[![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/lQYvaaY9.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/lQYvaaY9.png)

Not even the fallback chain of `Noto Sans SC, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif` fills in the missing glyphs.

What are some fonts which can cover *all* (or most) unicode Chinese glyphs? Maybe even several fonts to cover the ones each font is missing, but the fonts are close?

So far I haven't seen a font type cover all character. An easy way to check if a font type has large collection or not is its file size. The larger the file, the more likely it has larger collection.

My recommended font: Kai font type from 教育部 of Taiwan:

[edukai font](https://language.moe.gov.tw/001/Upload/Files/site_content/M0001/edukai-5.0.zip)

It collected 13084 characters.
