Add Japanese language support to your copy of Adobe Reader 8 with this stand-alone font pack.
There are several additional Font Packs available for Adobe Reader so you can display and interact with documents authored in languages other than those supported in your native Adobe Reader.

The Japanese Font Pack is necessary to correctly display a document when an author does not embed the appropriate Japanese font in to the document. It is also necessary when the author does embed the font, but the reader of the document wishes to interact in some way with its content – e.g. collaborating, commenting or filling out forms.

The Japanese Font Pack can be either installed “on-demand” or as a stand-alone installer. "On-demand" means that Acrobat Reader realizes it is missing the Font Pack needed to display or interact with the document and will ask the user if it should be downloaded and installed. The stand-alone installer allows the Japanese Font Pack to be installed independently of Reader.

Operating systems supported Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Solaris SPARC.
