How do I use Japanese Fonts and create Text in CS14?

Can anyone tell me what I need to do so that Illustrator will use Japanese fonts and will display Japanese text correctly?

Is there a Language kit that needs to be installed to the Western version of Adobe Illustrator?

or

Do I need to purchase a Japanese version (if there is such a thing)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

C

Hello Corbaty,

The only thing you need is the actual Japanese Fonts installed in your computer.

Here you can get free official fonts of the Japanese language:

Once the fonts are installed, you can copy and paste the text and select the font type that you want.

I hope this helps!

If you are working on a Mac and want to input the text rather than copy and paste then yu have to enable the Japanese input first in the System Preferences>Language and Text (OS 10.6.x or International for Previous versions) >Japanese under the input source tab.)

Then select the dialog and the font you can also choose to show the table or other input methods.
