Because of this problem, figjam is extremely difficult to promote in our team. Hope to fix it years ago

   Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this
   
   When I am trying to input Chinese characters, figjam failed to display it correctly. I tried it both on website and in the desktop version but failed to solve it. Hope Chinese can be supported later.

   Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)

请尽快匹配字体！

I am using the FigJam, it’s a great tool, but it supports Chinese fonts poorly. When I type in a sentence in Chinese into FigJam, it can only show a few Chinese Characters, the rest is just blank.

This is a screenshot as proof, and this does not occur in Figma.

I think it’s because the font, the default font doesn’t have full Chinese characters, but FigJam doesn’t have the option to change font.

As for solution, I tried the Chinese pack from figma.cool, not working. And I also noticed that in cursor chat, Chinese can display properly.

PLS fix this, thank you!

In figma ( not figjam ), user need to select certain chinese friendly fonts(eg. source sans han) to support full chinese typeface display. it doesnt works great but the “some chinese does not display” issue can be solved

however, in Figjam, there are no font selector, therefor no way to choose a chinese character friendly font, then it became a major problem.

Here using Traditional Chinese character which is better than what Simplified Chinese encountered as mentioned above. We have found that over 90% characters can be used but only some characters such as 夠 is unable to show either (This is actually a very common character by the way, don’t know if it’s really related to the font type). FYI. Super great app, nice done Figma! Please fix it:)

1. Describe the bug/issue you’re running into?

Can’t show simplified Chinese properly in stick notes

2. Are you able to consistently reproduce it? If so what are the steps?

Consistently

3. Share a screenshot, recording, console log, link to the file, etc.

4. Is the issue only happening in desktop app or a specific browser , or both?

Both

5. What OS/version and/or browser/version are you using?

Mac OS 11.2.1

I type in “喜爱”,text show "喜 ". I can’t use.

Thanks for the suggestion to use Traditional Chinese as temporary using.But It’s not hard to support Simplified Chinese from back-end engineers. I think it’s the PM’s work to decide if Simplified Chinese should be on schedule. I don’t know the reason but “In the COVID-19 crisis, inclusion and diversity matter more than ever” 目前只能用繁体字，但是开发简体中文应该不难+不用很久，这应该是产品经理没有决定的事情吧！一个公司文化不应该是diversity吗，为什么不尽快把FigJam安装简体中文呢？
