v2.12: Installing Japanese fonts for text viewing

Hi Everyone

I have been trying to install Japanese fonts for text viewing on my Iliad v2 but can't seem to get it working. Here is what I have done:

a. Download ttf from http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Japanese.html
b. Create "fonts" directory in root directory of CF card. Put ttf files in it.
c. Go to /usr/share/fonts/truetype
d. Create symlink: ln -s /media/cf/fonts
e. Run fc-cache in /usr/share/fonts/truetype

But it does not seem to take effect even after a reboot. After running fc-cache, I can see a new binary font file in "fonts" directory in the CF card.

May I know if I have missed any steps?

Thanks
