My last release already supports Adobe-Japan1-4 in Acrobat 5.0 with the Adobe Asian font pack.

I don't know. What are the CID codes for those characters?

So I cannot use these pre-rotated characters. Is this right? Thank you, KuMi My last release already supports Adobe-Japan1-4 in Acrobat 5.0 with the Adobe Asian font pack.
