FOP is able to process japanese characters. This doesn't mean you see glyphs for japanese characters in the PDF. In order to get this, you have to supply a font with appropriate glyphs to FOP. First, locate a font. If you have other applications on your platform which display japanese, look where the system stores fonts. Secont, you have to prepare a font metrics file and tell FOP to use it. This is described in the documentation in the FOP distribution: docs/html-docs/fonts.html. You are told to assign your font a name there. Third, construct a small FO file to test it. Declare some standard page master, and insert a block with japanese characters in the flow. Select the font you installed in step 2 using the font-family property (e.g. if you named it "foo", declare font-family="foo" on the block. Depending on your editor, you can insert the japanese characters directly into the FO file, or use XML character references.
