"Right to left languages as Hebrew and Arabic will only be available in PDF format. For languages with a limited set of character as Cyrillic or Greek, the files can be read in all formats........................................... ............
For documents with an extended set of characters like Chinese, you will need to install your own font on the Cybook to decode your documents (except for PDF files which embed most of the times the required font)."

So unless they are lying, the Cybook should display Chinese and Japanese(which is very similar to Chinese) characters correctly other than in PDF format.

Anybody added Chinese or Japanese fonts and displayed it on the Cybook?
Or anybody willing to experiment with it on your Cybook?
