Sure.

Yes. Just use appropriate language mutation of Windows.
If you can't, use Unicode.
ExtTextOutW() might get you started...

Only multibyte characters (if you don't know what it is, use Google). VCL 
doesn't support Unicode.

Yes.

> How to use Unicode?

Not an easy task. You have to write your own components. Use ExtTextOutW().
Or give a try to Elpack at www.eldos.org.
