I've tracked down the source of the problem. That doesn't mean that I've fixed it, but I at least have a path out of this quagmire.
When I export the Word document to HTML format (UTC-8 encoded), it saves the .html file as a 5900+ line document, 4000+ of which is dedicated to MS stylesheet code. When I upload that file to the web server and run it as, you know, doc.html, it's a 207KB file, but at least the characters show up. When I try to cut/paste the actual content into the dsp_main.cfm page, the characters look like your typical gibberish - what it would look like if you tried to view Excel code in an HTML document. When I try to set up the MS <style> markup into, say, JP.css and import it in the same part of the header as I import my other style sheets, i get something about "unexpected variable #146 - 1." I've tried to pinpoint which part of the CSS is making the Japanese characters actually *look* like Japanese characters, so that I could just use *that* part of the 4000+-line markup, but I think I'm missing something. I'll just keep whittling away at it. Thanks to all who responded - I will probably take this question to a CSS group and stop wasting the CF folks' time!
