On a related note, I had the client save out "raw" Japanese text to use as my source text. This was the technique I've used in the past with Chinese but apparently Japanese works differently. Anyway, now that I've got this format, I'm having a hard time converting it back into legible Japanese (Word, WordPad, etc). Got any ideas on how I might do this? (I have access to both Windows and Mac if that helps.) This is all very infuriating -- when I get Japanese text documents, I can't convert them into plain text files, nor can I do the reverse...
