These documents contain chinese ideograms (as I think they're called) which I can't read and therefore can't use. The document I have created uses accented roman letters, giving a more or less phonetic representation of how the word sounds, so most of the letters are ones we think of as english, some are accented vowels such as one has in french, and other vowels are similar in having accents, but have different kinds of accents than are normally seen in languages using roman.
