That's what I would expect; the opposite would surprise me.

You should do something like this:
document.add(
        new Paragraph("Japanese path separator: " + File.separator,
        japaneseFont));

Introducing functionality that changes one glyph into another feels like
introducing a bug: what if you really want to visualize an English
backslash on an Asian OS? Also: I assumed Java was supposed to be
platform independent. We can't start replacing characters based on the
OS, can we?
