So I go to this Japanese product in Amazon and the text is rendered as a box which means I'm missing the correct font. I have installed every single font in the Ubuntu repositories and it still won't display correctly. I have also tried many options in Firefox's character encoding. Please help me to find the missing font.
Rant: Why can't these web browsers automatically install missing fonts by downloading from web or prompting to install from repositories.
