Han: STSong Trad. Han: LiSong Pro Those fonts are macOS system default, but quite old without modern font features. I'd like to recommend newer fonts for enhancing typography. And newer font also have three font weights. That is: Simp. Han: Songti SC Trad. Han: Songti TC What is the expected behavior? What went wrong? LiSong Pro and STSong are quite old more than 10 years ago. SongTi TC/SC added in macOS from 10.8 Lion. So now is generally installed on most of macs. Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A Did this work before? N/A Does this work in other browsers?
