We have also replaced font features by a new advanced font system, so you can use any TrueType fonts including CJK (Chinese-Japanese-Korean) fonts in diagrams as well as in the generated PDF document. Default fonts are changed and packaged with installer as follow:

• Liberation Fonts (substitute for Arial, Courier New, and Times New Roman)
• Noto Sans CJK Fonts (used for CJK characters)

• Roboto
• Source Sans Pro
• Source Code Pro

New font system also allow to install your own fonts (at this time we only support TrueType fonts). Default fonts are placed in <INSTALL_DIR>/www/styles/fonts/. If you want to add a new font, create a folder and place all .ttf files and then make an appropriate font.json file.
