I must be doing something wrong...

To answer the standard questions:
WinXP 32 on an AMD64, 1024mb ram, 64mb GeForce 4 Mx 440, SbLive 5.1
I have the Kanon Standard Edition DVD, 2004 edition, I believe? I see that the patch does not yet support this version (I tried patching it, *grin*), so I'm wanting to use Kanon in its natural, untranslated state (I speak and can read enough Japanese to get by, usually). My question basically reduces to this: Fonts/Japanese text support. Now, Firefox, Mozilla, IE, Charmap, etc all have no probem displaying japanese Kanji, and I have installed the Epson japanese fonts from http://www.travelphrases.info/galler..._Japanese.html

When I run Kanon, however, this is what I get:



which (probably) is telling me to select my font. I didn't have any luck getting any of those options to work. The game then displays like this:





Ergh. How do I fix this? I (think?) I have japanese language support installed, I know I have IME up and running, but that doesn't appear to help. Do you guys have any ideas?

You may have Japanese support installed, but is your computer running with its ANSI codepage set to Japanese?

See here for instructions on how to do so.

That fixed it, thanks.
