Microsoft JhengHei (微軟正黑體) is a sans-serif typeface included in Windows Vista or later and Microsoft Office 2007. It follows the Standard Form of National Characters prescribed by the Ministry of Education of the Republic of China (Taiwan) and is intended to be used in Traditional Chinese language environments using ClearType.
Microsoft JhengHei UI
