Tested 3-17-99 Win32 build. In the above page, the Japanese selection under the items (商品名) and the Japanese buttons at the end of the page are not displayed correctly.

I believe this will be fix when our GFX base widget land (or I should say switch to the GFX based widget). Reassign this to Peter Trudelle since he own Toolkit. Peter, take your time to land GFX based widget. Just remember this bug is depend on that.... (Make sure you call the PRUnichar* or nsString based GetWidth/DrawString so it will render Japanese correctly) :) Please close this bug after you land them.

Apprunner now uses GFX widgets so it should render japanese. Can you confirm this with the current build and close out this bug if is displays correctly? You can also test with viewer is you turn GFX rendering on by selecting tools->style->widget rendering mode->gfx from the menu. Then loading the page. -E
I tried 1999-04-16-08 apprunner on US NT4. After I hit reload, the drop-downs and buttons display Latin1 garbage characters. Elsewhere in the page, Japanese displays correctly. There is no viewer.exe in this day's zip file.

Kevin, Talked to Vidur and he said your the man for this. I guess you own DrawString. I looked at my code and it seems to do everything right. Gets the string from the attribute and draws it. Not sure why it doesn't work in japanese.
