# Change font & language setting

Use a text editor to open the config file at [`<cet install path>`](#user-content-fn-1)[^1]`/config.json` to adjust the settings.

In this page, we use this example JSON snippet to guide you through adjusting the settings:

```json5
{
    // other lines
    "font": {
        "base_size": 16.0,
        "language": "Default",
        "oversample_horizontal": 3,
        "oversample_vertical": 1,
        "path": ""
    },
    // other lines
}
```

## Change font

Locate this line under the `"font"` curly brace:

```javascript
"path": ""
```

Add the path of the font you want to change to between the double-quotes.\
For example, if you want to change the font to Comic Sans, just change this line into:

```javascript
"path": "C:/Windows/Fonts/comic.ttf"
```

**Note:** You should use slash (`/`) instead of backslash (`\`) for the path.

## How to display non-English characters

Some mods may have implemented multilingual support. But the non-English characters will display as a question mark "?". This is because the default font only contains [ASCII printable characters](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#Printable_characters).

To display a language that **only** uses ASCII characters (such as French, German), all you need to do is to change the font to one with a wider range (Literally any font).

To display a language that uses **non-**&#x41;SCII characters (such as Chinese, Russian), besides changing the font, you also need to change this line in the config file under the `"font"` curly brace:

```javascript
"language": "",
```

Here is a table of the "language" options and their descriptions.

| options                   | Descriptions                                                                                                              |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Cyrillic`                | Supports languages that use [Cyrillic scripts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrillic_script) (e.g. Russian, Bulgarian..) |
| `ChineseFull`             | Supports traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese, and Japanese display                                                    |
| `ChineseSimplifiedCommon` | Only supports simplified Chinese display                                                                                  |
| `Japanese`                | Only supports Japanese display                                                                                            |
| `Korean`                  | For Korean                                                                                                                |
| `Thai`                    | For Thai                                                                                                                  |
| `Vietnamese`              | For Vietnamese                                                                                                            |

For example, to display Chinese all you need to do is:

```json5
{
    // other lines
    "font": {
        "base_size": 16.0,
        "language": "ChineseFull",
        "oversample_horizontal": 3,
        "oversample_vertical": 1,
        "path": "C:/Windows/Fonts/simhei.ttf"
    },
    // other lines
}
```

The result (using the Sim Hei / 黑体 font):

<div align="left"><img src="https://2893586400-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MP5jWcLZLbbbzO-_ua1%2F-MSNiT7SJ-BfpUL9H_dX%2F-MSNixCsG65RdjORN7LM%2Ffont.png?alt=media&#x26;token=8cdc4ed4-76f7-41b1-bd83-09dcb9a8c5df" alt=""></div>
