My suggestion is to create two different profiles: one for when you want
OpenOffice in English, the other for when you want to use OpenOffice in
Japanese. In case you want to mix the two languages in the same document, it
does not help much, but I found it very efficient in my case where I either
start a session with English GUI, language, localization and one session in
Italian with Italian GUI, language settings and localization.
It is very easy to do and does not require re-installing OpenOffice.
Start the program with the -env:UserInstallation=file:///{etc}
To create a new profile which you can then set to use Japanes.
Cheers,
Michele
