Let me copy paste this from my feature request I just now made, because I also have a question about it:
------
Is there a possibility to add support for Japanese fonts to the PRS-600? The person at this page http://pc-parts.cocolog-nifty.com/bl...6002-bc2d.html has done it as well, but it would be great if it was integrated into this project. I would like to see Japanese when browsing for books and be able to put Japanese text files (so no PDF) on the e-reader without seeing gibberish. This can be UTF-8, or SJIS, or whatever. I don't mind. If you need anything translated, you can contact me on sebastiaan@akiha.something.nl, but then without the something in it. Use akiha.nl after the at mark.
------

Anyway, I saw this part about adding fonts in the Install Guide, would that do what I wanted?
