How to Get Rid of a Foreign Font
Fonts are a shared resource in computer operating systems, which means that you only need to install one font file for use with all of your word processing applications. So if you've installed a font pack that includes a font formatting in an unfamiliar language, you won't have to visit each of your word processing applications to delete the font. You can delete or disable the foreign font from your computer's font library and rid it from your applications.
