I turned my dietpi on a raspberry pi 2 b into a chromium kiosk.
One of the webpages has Japanese characters on it.
But they all show up as squares.
Is there some locale things or fonts I should install?
Welcome to our community.
Indeed, some additional fonts might be needed. Have a look to following. It’s quite old but there is a statement from 2021 on one of the last post. fonts - Why can't my Chromium display Japanese characters? - Super User
I ended up doing this based on the site.
sudo apt install fonts-takao
And it worked perfectly. Just a reboot. Thank you!
