I am looking for either bitmaps or outlines for Hiragana and Katakana fonts.
I would prefer having a postscript font but Adobe says they only sell to OEM
printer manufacturers and only to Japan.  Has anyone in Japan designed their
own outlines or bitmaps?  If anyone has any idea, name or product of a group
or company that have these fonts I would like to hear from them.
