They are Morisawa's most famous Kanji fonts.
Normally, they are built in the Adobe genuine Japanese PostScript
printers, and are not sold as separate packages.

I think there are two ways to use these these fonts:

1. Buy Japanese PostScript printers.
2. Use appropriate Japanese fonts (other than Morisawa's), and give them
   Morisawa font names.
   Japanese versions of GhostScript have such font substitution techniques.
