Looking for TeX-Fonts for Japanease Langugage (wji...fonts)
============================================================

I work on an international climate history database, that does allow to
print the results in any language the coding scheme has bee translated to
(including Russian Cyrllic, Greek etc) and to print remarks (foonotes) in any
original language. 

Unfortunatly our collaborator from Tokyo has never woked with TeX and is not
specialised in computing. I've tried to get Japanease fonts from several
servers, such as miki.cs.titech.ac.jp and poorman's Japanease from Washington
(blackbox.hacc.washington.edu), but there are just the makros to handle
Japanese, but NO FONTS. 

Yoshio Tagami uses SHIFT-JIS on DOS5.0/V and I easealy could include his text
in {\beginJapanease .... \endJapanease}, if the fonts would be available
somewhere. 

I work both on VAX/VMS and on DOS (for test-printouts). 


Can anyone help me with fonts? 


With all my regards and thanks in advance
