Hi,

as I need to create PDFs via pdflatex with japanese in it, I wanted to
install CJK. which looked simpled turned out to be a horrible
unsolveable task.

Well, I downloaded CJK & all font stuff to it, installed all step by
step. after hourse of trying and getting the usual "dmjhira12" font
error for JIS.tex or SJIS.tex I installed ALL wadalab fonts with ALL
steps to the readme and still same error.

The only thing I didn't (and I won't do) is getting a new LaTeX 2e. my
reports 2000/06/01

why?

becouse it is CRAP and idiotic to download 100 files and move them each
alone to one directory. I am already so angry about this, becouse it is
such a horrible wasted time (including the install of old OUTDATED
FreeType, strange contriblibs nowwhere staed).

somehow I start to know why no big company uses open source. crappy
documentation and spending hours of hours with no single succeding step.
especially when it comes to support of non US fonts ...

lg, cs (quite hopeless to get ever a latex PDF with japanese in it)
