Japanese PDFs

I'm generating print and online PDFs from our 4 x 600 page Japanese manuals
(using FM5.5.6; Win95J; PII 350; 128 Mb RAM; 500 Mb free disk space) and
using all of Dov's settings (Distiller 3.02; PS driver from aps4jpn.exe, etc
[gave up on NT J PS drivers -- they invariably crashed the machine]) ...

But, after generating a 365 Mb .ps file and distilling an 8 Mb PDF, I can
open the resulting PDF with the Win95 J machine -- but on an English NT
system all I get are blank pages with page numbers, and the message "There
was an error processing a page. A font contains a bad CMap /Encoding".

We are just starting Chinese Simplified, but so far this seems less of a
problem (hope, hope, hope).

Naturally, the printers are screaming for the print PDFs, and the CD people
want their online files now.

PS
I have ordered Acrobat 4, but copies don't seem to have made it this far
south yet.
