Keywords: foreign characters

I'm interested in getting the Apollo DN3000 to use various foreign 
character sets.  Edfont, as is, only supports something like 96 characters
per font.  Does anyone have any experience in getting font files to contain
greater that 128 characters.  We'd eventually like to be able to do
Chinese, Japanese, and other character sets which are very large.  I've
heard rumors of some way to get the Apollo to use two-byte character
discriptors, but don't know if any of it is true.  Can someone help
me out.
