To reiterate: as far as I know, it is not possible to set the font for Japanese only in texinfo[.tex]. Thus the ja font, wherever it is specified, would be used for every character. That sounds like just shunting the problem off in another direction, not actually solving it. Really solving it is not a trivial matter and there is no simple dozen-line patch that will overcome it. > However, if the native Unicode support is disabled, > the Japanese characters cannot be used in this way. Well, they *could* be. We could choose a font with CJK support and make the definitions in texinfo.tex just as we define existing chars. In principle it is possible to make definitions for any and all Unicode characters in texinfo.tex. -k
