I think perhaps I should emphasise this point, in case I have not been
clear.

It is possible to learn how to set Western 1-byte text in an
afternoon. But setting 2-byte text is a major development project, and
will require you to understand a great deal about PostScript and
fonts.  I have never attempted it, but I would expect it to be many
months of hard development.

If you can obtain the font already in PostScript format, CID format,
it may save a lot of time.  But the results of printing with a device
driver will NOT be suitable.
