Non-ANSI language support

I wonder how NSIS is supporting non-ANSI languages? I'm currently translating an installation from english to japanese and the installer works fine on Win2000/XP but outputs garbage on Windows 9x. Is NSIS using Unicode for languages such as japanese and chinese?

Can you specify another code page somehow to fix the problems under Win9x? I read somewhere that some fonts doesn't have support for all languages, can anyone verify this for japanese?

All help is very appreciated!

Yes, I used the file NSIS2\Contrib\Language files\Japanese.nlf.

The first line in my script is:

LoadLanguageFile "Contrib\Language files\Japanese.nlf"


That should work, right?
