The two fonts are of different metrics.  I want to force them to
be same.

Yes, full-width ones differ from half-width ones; but my Chinese
font is not monospaced.  That doesn't matter, though, since all
Chinese characters are naturally monospace; and, I tried using a
mono one with the same problem.

Is modifying the fonts the only way to do this?
