I try the chinese epub file and it work!! How do you do it? Can you show me how?

Ok. Thanks for testing it.
If you rename the epub to zip and open it with winrar o winzip you can see how the trick works. There are 2 key files inside the epub:
- style.css
- DroidSansFallback.ttf
If you open style.css with a text editor you can see it points to the font to use (DroidSansFallback.ttf) . This file can be more complex defining things like margins and line height... If you put this 2 files inside any epub and then zip it again you can display chinese text.
Now here I attach another epub with Chinese, Korean and Japanese in it. It uses the same method but the style.css is more complex, with more parameters such as line-spacing, indentation . Please tell me how it works and if it looks good (I don't have a Kobo).

EDIT: The file content.opf must also declare the location of style.css as in:
<item id="style" href="style.css" media-type="text/css"/>
