Updated my Japanese skin with latest files from the English Narrative Report, except for the dictionary file and realized no names of Japanese individuals in the SVG chart. Use the same fields for Japanese First and Last Name as in English.

Update: Managed to get the display back to normal, but the proper selection of font is essential. A display in the genomap does not necessary mean it will display in the SVG graphic.

As I said it is essential to select the proper font, part of this selection is trial and error.
I have another file for Chinese and I am using the font "PMingLiU", both on Japanese Windows XP.

I have that font. Thanks.
Will give it a try - as soon as I find where the right 'skin' is...

To use this font, you have to open the properties dialog box (just click "enter") and select this font from the font tab.
As far as the skin is concerned, I think you have to be on your own. I tried once to translate a few items in the dictionary.xml file in order to create a Chinese report(you have to create a new skin first and rename this to Chinese report), but this was just a copy/paste operation of Chinese characters, which were given to me by a friend. And since some characters are similar in meaning to Japanese, it was not too difficult.
Good luck!

sample:
PhParents T="{ }{\U}{!0}的[父是{!1}{2h}][[{?2}和{!3}]母是{!4}{5h}]."
