Question

Source Han San CN displays in Roman characters, not Chinese

I activated Source Han San CN in Typekit, but in Indesign, when I assign it to any text, it just displays in I guess just the regular Source sans font (attached screen shot). Have searched long and hard for an answer online but no luck.

 

Update: With a red face I report I've solved this. I didn't realize the font included Roman characters and that there are special ones for the Chinese characters. Sorry for the bother!

    Han fonts contain Roman characters too so this seems normal. Type Han characters.
