[KS] Fwd: High-quality pan-CJK typeface from Google+Adobe

[Frank Hoffmann]

Two more notes:

(a) In the last note I forgot to post the actual URL:
    http://www.google.com/get/noto/cjk.html
    But now I see this one seems even easier for downloadng and 
installing it:
    http://www.google.com/get/noto/install.html

(b) Far  m o r e   i m p o r t a n t :
    I cannot get the Noto Sans CJK fonts to work in MS Word on a Mac. I 
am at the latest version of Mac OSX and have the latest update of MS 
Word for Mac 2011. Does this require 'Microsoft Office 365' (which 
seems to widely opens your computer to various state "authorities" to 
look over your shoulder in warm care)? The fonts work in all programs I 
tried, including MS Excel and other non MS programs, but in MS Word I 
get an extra trailing space after Hanja characters -- even if I apply 
that Noto font to words/names I had already typed and formatted in 
another font such as Batang. As an example, it is impossible to write "
漢子" -- I only can write "漢 子". Any information related to this? (I 
could not find anything.) These would otherwise be absolutely wonderful 
fonts.
