I have several Japanese fonts but do not want to install them all. I would like to preview them before installing.

In icon view I can get a very rough idea of the style of the font as it shows Aa. When I open the font I am presented with a dialog box which shows a sample of the font with the sentence The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.

I would like to change this sample text to Japanese text to get a fuller preview of the font. Is it at all possible? I suspect I might have to edit and compile source, not something I'm very familiar with.

As an alternative to the preinstalled font-viewer:

Font Manager allows you to compare fonts with your own custom text.

sudo apt install font-manager
