Looks like a font substitution problem. (I'm guessing it's falling back
onto a bitmap Simplified Chinese font first.) Play around with the
settings in /etc/fonts.

In /etc/fonts there are three files, "fonts.conf", "fonts.dtd" and
"local.conf". The file "fonts.conf" advises me not to edit it, and
local.conf is a very short file with not much to help me. "fonts.dtd"
says "This is the Document Type Definition for font configuration
files".
