I'll take this opportunity to ask a question that has been bothering me
for a while: How do I get latex to handle Japanese? On my RedHat 7.3
machine at home (soon to be switched to Gentoo), I have platex as part
of the tetex package, but it is not included in the Gentoo tetex ebuild.
Moreover, after platex'ing and dvips'ing my file, the Japanese didn't
show up in the ps file. I tried all different kinds of encoding, with no
success. Do I need a special version of ghostscript? In any case, what
do I do in Gentoo?
