title: Problem displaying japanese characters on BlackBerry java
body: <p>Does anyone know the best method to display Japanese/Chinese characters on a BlackBerry screen? I'm retrieving a JSON response from the Google Translate API containing the translated text.  I am able to display most languages correctly with UTF-8, but I believe the the Japanese / Chinese characters will not display due to a lack of font / language pack.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried to set the font in my application to a custom Japanese font (.ttf), however this did not work. Perhaps I haven't chosen the correct font? I'm at a dead end, I don't know what to try next.</p>
  
  <p>I know that this is definitely possible, as some translation apps for the BlackBerry will display these languages correctly.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
