FAQ, please read before posting:

  1. I get an error that the sources cannot be downloaded: Please read the instructions on the top of the PKGBUILD.

  2. Some fonts are missing in my copy of Windows (e.g., holomdl2, corbel, chandra, ...): It seems that Microsoft distributes some fonts only with some Windows versions. You can just comment out the corresponding line in the PKGBUILD and then build with "makepkg --skipchecksums".

  3. Some fonts have different checksums: We keep the checksums synchronized with our own Windows installations that are regularly updated. Different Windows versions, different ISOs etc. may contain fonts in different versions/variants. Just build the package using "makepkg --skipchecksums".

  4. Why does the version not correspond to the latest Windows 10 build: If fonts have not changes between builds, there is no reason to change the version number of this package.

  5. Why are some fonts (e.g., traditional chinese, japanese etc.) not included here, not even in the corresponding split packages: We currently only include fonts that are installed on a standard Windows installation, without additional feature-on-demand packages (see: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/fonts/windows_10_font_list).

Please refrain from posting links to the font files required to build this package. Microsoft fonts are protected by copyright and neither we nor you are allowed to distribute them. This package only provides an approach to cleanly integrate the fonts into an Arch Linux system provided that you have a licensed copy of Windows 10. Otherwise you can use the ttf-ms-fonts package to install publicly available fonts. If you post comments intending to distribute the fonts via this page we need to contact administrators in order to remove your comment.

qpalz: This package currently only contains mingliub.ttc and not mingliu.ttc. The former (included one) only contains additional symbols from the Unicode "CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B", whereas the latter (not included one) is the basic zh-tw font.

I have recently updated to the current version. Now, zh_tw (Traditional Chinese) fonts could not be applied to Chinese characters. WPS (a word processor similar to MS Word) considers MingLiU, which is part of ttf-ms-win10-zh_tw, as a Latin text font: https://snag.gy/G40wPd.jpg. MingLiU works correctly only for English characters even though it is a Chinese font. This problem is consistent among all applications, not limited to WPS.

In the fonts browser of KDE, boxes instead of the correct Chinese characters are shown for MingLiU: https://snag.gy/hdA8RI.jpg. As a comparison, a commonly used Linux Chinese font, WenQuanYi Zen Hei, shows the Chinese characters correctly: https://snag.gy/iHxy8L.jpg.

I have not updated for 3 years. The previous version I used was 10.0.14393-3, which worked perfectly.

Please suggest any possible solution. Thank you.

Please add simfang.ttf simhei.ttf simkai.ttf SIMLI.TTF SIMYOU.TTF to _ttf_ms_win10_zh_cn, they're kinda widely used.

Don't use explorer.exe to copy the fonts out in order to get all of them. One way is to use 7z or something to make an archive of the fonts folder.

The corbel and Chandra fonts are actually not included with windows 10, they are only for Windows 8 and below.
