Japanese font

[Rahmie]

I can't see the Japanese font. I just see square. How can I change that? :?
Thank you.

Well, I'll try to help if I can a little. First off, are you using a Mac or a PC? What web browser are you using?

 

[Rahmie]

I have a PC and I use broadband from Juno.

I'm sorry, I meant the software you use to see the WWW. Windows comes prepackaged with "Internet Explorer" for example. Recently "Firefox" has become popular, and there are many others as well. (If Juno is such software, please excuse my ignorance.)

Basically I think the main thing you need to do is download the Japanese fonts. If you use Explorer, I am completely certain that you can download the fonts from Microsoft's homepage, for example.

(Sorry, I don't think I'll be able to reply again for a couple of hours. Good luck! Also, if you look hard enough, that information is almost certainly posted here at JREF somewhere.)

Don't forget to alter your character encoding. In Firefox, it's under View-Character Encoding. I usually use the Japanese (Shift-JIS) and have no problems.
