The fontname is Big5 encoding for "新細明體",
This is Chinese family name for PMingLiU.
PMingLiU is blacklisted by FreeType2.
Maybe it is reasonable proposal to add non-ASCII
family names to the blacklist function in FreeType2.

# BTW, in PMingLiU font file, this localized family

# generator reencode Big5 font name for the font
# designed for Traditional Chinese.
