lsj070599,

Many Asian fonts do not supply bold or italic variants of the glyphs. Indeed, emphasis equivalent to italic is usually made by applying diacritic marks such as Kenten (currently not supported in TLF). For bold, you should use the heavier weight faces for the font. For example, use Hiragino Mincho Pro W6 (ヒラギノ 明朝 W6) rather than Hiragino Mincho Pro W3(ヒラギノ 明朝 W3).
