I need to figure out the name of a font but it's in Chinese. I am including a screenshot of the name as it appears in someone's version of Illustrator and a small example of the text. Sending me a copy of the AI isn't possible. Thanks!

    OH! And I just found the answer in another thread. Settings->Type->Show Font Names in English

    Yes but what good is seeing the name in only Chinese? If I want to use the font again, I'll just be scrolling through the whole list looking for a visual match.

    If the name is shown in Chinese, that really is the name of the font. Apps don't translate font names. So you have the name, you need to find a Chinese font store and match the name... here is one site with Chinese fonts for download, you will see that more than half have names in Chinese characters.
