RE: Japanese PDFs

In order to make searchable Japanese PDFs, you must embed the double-byte
fonts. In order to embed said fonts, you need the Japanese version of
Acrobat.

I avoid this by setting my printer driver (I use Adobe 4.2.4) to print the
double-byte fonts as outlines. The bookmarks still show up in Japanese
(though if you open the PDF in an English OS you get the same message). The
file will be huge, but viewable on any system, as the fonts are essentially
being interpreted as graphic objects.

Hope this helps, feel free to mail me offline,
