With any language version of Acrobat Reader 4.0 and 5.0, you can display Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files that contain text in Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Japanese, and Korean (CJK), if the author of a PDF file embeds these fonts into the document. Any language version of Reader 4.0 or 5.0 will be able to display the CJK text on any system without additional software; however, if the author uses CJK fonts but does not embed them in the document, then you will need access to the correct Asian fonts in order to view the PDF file on non-native systems. All you need to do is install the appropriate Asian font pack for use with Acrobat Reader. The Japanese Font Pack software may not be freely redistributed. Copies of this software may be obtained by registering at the Adobe web site at: http://www.adobe.com/ or http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/acrwin.htm

And all language readers (individual downloads) are at: http://www.adobe.com/p

If you have a FULL VERSION of the Adobe Acrobat PDF creation software, the Asian front packs need to be installed from the original installation disc. This is not an automatic function, and must be added to the program.
