FOP supports the Japanese characters?

Hello, I have a Japanese FO file (attached) generated by 
javax.xml.transform.Transformer.  It looks like encoded correctly (UTF-8). 
 I ran it through FOP ("FOP test-japanese.fo test-japanese.pdf") and the 
result Japanese characters in PDF file were not displayed correctly in my 
Adobe Acrobat.  It is possible that my Adobe Acrobat might not configure 
correctly.  I was also wondering if you know FOP supports the Japanese 
characters.

Thanks in advance,
Hai-Fun Wu

FOP handles Roomaji very well.  For the other writing scripts, possible 
sources of help are:

It does support them, but you need to use a font (e.g. Arial Unicode) 
which supports those characters.
