Sans CJK released in 2014 . Like Noto Sans CJK, Noto Serif CJK supports
Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, all in one font.Song (宋体) in Mainland China,
Ming (明體) in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, Minchō (明朝) in
Japan, and Myeongjo (명조) or Batang (바탕) in Korea. The names
and writing styles originated during the Song and Ming dynasties in China, when
China's wood-block printing technique became popular. Characters were carved
along the grain of the wood block. Horizontal strokes were easy to carve and
vertical strokes were difficult; this resulted in thinner horizontal strokes and
wider vertical ones. In addition, subtle triangular ornaments were added to the
end of horizontal strokes to simulate Chinese Kai (楷体) calligraphy. This style
continues today and has become a popular typeface style.
Design of '永' ('eternity') in Noto Serif and Sans CJK. This ideograph is famous for having the most important elements of calligraphic strokes. It is often used to evaluate calligraphy or typeface design.
It has comprehensive character coverage for the four languages. This
includes the full coverage of CJK Ideographs with variation support for four
regions, Kangxi radicals, Japanese Kana, Korean Hangul and other CJK symbols and
letters in the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane of Unicode. It also provides a
limited coverage of CJK Ideographs in Plane 2 of Unicode, as necessary to
support standards from China and Japan.

Traditional Chinese
Supports BIG5, and Traditional Chinese glyphs are compliant to glyph standard of Taiwan Ministry of Education (教育部國字標準字體) .
Japanese
Supports all of the kanji in JIS X 0208, JIS X 0213, and JIS X 0212 to include all kanji in Adobe-Japan1-6.
Korean
Supports over 1.5 million archaic Hangul syllables and 11,172 modern syllables as well as all CJK ideographs in KS X 1001 and KS X 1002
Noto Serif CJK’s support of character and glyph set standards for the four languages
It respects diversity of regional writing conventions for the same
character. The example below shows the four glyphs of '述' (describe) in four
languages that have subtle differences.
From left to right are glyphs of '述' in S. Chinese, T. Chinese, Japanese and Korean. This character means "describe".
It is offered in seven weights: ExtraLight, Light, Regular, Medium,
SemiBold, Bold, and Black. Noto Serif CJK supports 43,027 encoded characters and
includes 65,535 glyphs (the maximum number of glyphs that can be included in a
single font). The seven weights, when put together, have almost a half-million
glyphs. The weights are compatible with Google's Material Design standard fonts, Roboto , Noto Sans and Noto Serif
(Latin-Greek-Cyrillic fonts in the Noto family).
Seven weights of Noto Serif CJK
It supports vertical text layout and is compliant with the Unicode vertical text layout
standard . The shape, orientation, and position of particular characters
(e.g., brackets and kana letters) are changed when the writing direction of
the text is vertical.

Last April, we started providing translations of code.google.com pages in five languages: Simplified Chinese (中文[简体]) , Japanese (日本語) , Portuguese (Português) , Russian (Pусский) , and Spanish (Español) . You didn't think we were done, did you?Korean (한국어) and Traditional Chinese (中文[繁體]) to that list. We've translated the site directory and top-level site pages, and from now on, you'll find those languages in the drop-down language selector at the top of the page header on code.google.com.OpenSocial API , Gadgets API , Themes API , and Adwords API . We have some API guides coming soon in Traditional Chinese, but unfortunately you'll have to guess which ones while we finish putting the final touches on those translations. If you're interested in hearing about new translations in these languages, you might want to subscribe to the APAC Developer Blog for updates as we add more content.By Naomi Bilodeau, Google Code Team
