Kenshi Muto, the key maintainer of CUPS commented over IRC that: "About the CJK issue: there are only a few text->PS converters that support CJK correctly. Usually we Japanese use a2ps or a2ps-perl-ja with the encoding option, before printing (it means that we don't trust any PPD to correctly handle any CJK encoding)." -- Martin-Éric Racine http://q-funk.iki.fi
