This issue is affecting me on 11.10, 64 bit trying to view Japanese
characters. None of the solutions here help to resolve the issue.

Title:
  Adobe Flash Player 9 and 10 displays CJK text incorrectly

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Fix Released
Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “fontconfig” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 7.10, Adobe Flash player 9 can display Chinese or Japanese
  (and likely Korean) glyphs, but on Ubuntu 8.04 it doesn't work,
  displaying "squares" for non-Latin glyphs instead.  It seems that
  "Bitstream Vera Sans" (with no font substitution) is used rather than
  "WenQuanYi Zen Hei" or other appropriate CJK fonts.  A screenshot is
  attached.

  Steps to reproduce:

   1. System -> Properties -> Language Support (from language-selector),
  and select one of the CJK locales as the default.

   2. Re-login as needed.

   3. Start Firefox and open e.g. http://www.tudou.com/ .

  The same problem still plagues Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (lucid) beta 1 with
  Adobe Flash Player: flashplugin-installer 10.0.45.2ubuntu1.
