Dear all,
I just posted this issue to the texworks google issue page, but maybe
there is someone here who can explain it:
-----------------------------------------------------------
http://code.google.com/p/texworks/issues/detail?id=615
the default on TeX Live is *not* to embed Japanese fonts into the created pdf, but use the standard names, exmaple:
$ pdffonts texworks-ptex1.pdf
name type emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- ---------
Ryumin-Light-Identity-H CID Type 0 no no no 5 0
PVJZJD+CMR10 Type 1C yes yes no 6 0
Now, running on Linux the TeXworks pdf viewer properly uses one of the system supplied Japanese fonts to show the characters, while on Windows nothing is shown, and no error message either (AFAI can see).
Versions used:
On Linux: Debian/unstable, 0.5~svn1035
On Windows: what is distributed with TeX Live 2012 (uptodate)
It might be that this is a problem with the distribution of TeXworks in TeX Live, or a program internal problem.

Thanks
