Hello Ken,
thanks for your past answers on this problematics.
Could you please explain what do you mean by Japanese support installed?
Acc. to my own experience Japanese emulator is not enough. Once I got
screenshots from our app taken on some Japanese Clie emulator by a Japanese
user. I was not able to display the same strings as he saw (I got just some
junk characters) despite using the same prc, the same emulator, the same
rom - the only difference was that I used English Windows. My conclusion was
that the emulator probably relies on some Windows services (maybe fonts)
that are available on Japanese systems only. I suppose that you refer to the
same thing.
With best regards,
Jan Slodicka
