This font is used as the default fallback font on Ubuntu

I'd like every distibution to have a CJK font so that apps can have CJK support without bundling a heavy font.

This is the smallest CJK font I could find. It's not perfect (e.g. it's a few years old so it doesn't have ㋿) but it's very small for a CJK fallback font.
