How to change default Burmese font in Ubuntu?

Question

By default, Ubuntu comes with Padauk for Burmese font and uses Padauk to show Burmese content for example in Settings, Files and so on. If I want to use a different default font for Burmese, how would I do it? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Let's do the android way.

Open the system font folder which used to be /usr/share/fonts. Look for myanmar font.

Rename your desired font to the exact name as original one and replace it.

Edited : Just checked. It's in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/

There are a total of 72 NotoSansMyanmar fonts and you have to rename and replace each of them with your desired font. What a hassle!
