With apologies to other cultures for wanting to post this, and thanks to the world for making English the default international computer language so that we language-challenged English speakers aren't forced to learn another tongue, here is a HOW-TO remove foreign fonts in Ubuntu:
1. Open a terminal and copy and paste the following:
2. Then copy and paste:sudo apt-get remove ttf-kochi-mincho ttf-kochi-gothic ttf-arabeyes ttf-arphic-ukai ttf-arphic-uming ttf-baekmuk ttf-bengali-fonts ttf-devanagari-fonts ttf-gentium ttf-gujarati-fonts ttf-indic-fonts ttf-kacst ttf-kacst-one ttf-kannada-fonts ttf-khmeros-core ttf-kochi-gothic ttf-lao ttf-malayalam-fonts ttf-mgopen ttf-oriya-fonts ttf-punjabi-fonts ttf-takao-pgothic ttf-vlgothic ttf-tamil-fonts ttf-telugu-fonts ttf-thai-tlwg ttf-unfonts-core ttf-indic-fonts-core ttf-wqy-zenhei
3. remove any other remaining fonts you don't want BUT:aptitude search ~i| grep font
DO NOT REMOVE:
- Any xfonts or xfont utilities
- x-tccidfont-conf
- ttf-opensymbol
- ttf-dejavu
- anything that starts with lib
- fontconfig
- defoma
- anything that starts with console
- gsfonts
Hope you find this useful
