I have a question about the Option-Content-Advanced-"Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

I am bilingual in English and Chinese. For Chinese sites, I prefer to use MS Yahei, but for English sites, I am fine with their own fonts.

If I uncheck "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above", the Chinese sites looks great, but a lot of icons on English sites won't display properly.

Is there a way to uncheck the "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above" only for Chinese?

You would have to use an extension to make it easier to toggle this setting.

When you disable website fonts then you also disable special icon fonts that a lot of websites use these days and you see a little square with the hex code instead.

You can look at this extension:
