In many Brill publications, Chinese text is typeset using the Windows font PMingLiU 新細明體 (file name: "mingliu.ttc"). This font, a "TrueType Collection", contains a character set suitable to represent scholarly Chinese texts and those which are more of the 'traditional' type; it does not, however, contain many historical characters. Some rare and/or archaic characters in Chinese may only be found in the font BabelStone Han.

Chinese, i.e., people in the PRC (but not in Hong Kong and Macao), generally prefer another Song/Ming-type font: SimSun 中易宋体 (file name: "simsun.ttc"), with its companion SimSun-ExtB (file name: "simsunb.ttf"). Publication mainly geared towards, and/or authored by, PRC Chinese should use SimSun.
