You are likely using a different font for Japanese that has the Asian
characters. That font is larger than the standard one used in most dialogs.
I typically just resize the Japanese version of the dialogs in the RC file
or make the original one big enough to fit the Asian characters. If the
text is garbled it likely means you are not running a Japanese Windows or
IME.

I have built an application (.Net 2005 using MFC) that embeds a manifest
file
for XP themes support. This application runs/displays fine on
non-Japanese
Windows systems. On Japanese Windows, however, the text and some common
controls are not rendered correctly. For example, the text is garbled and
some controls are not sized correctly. Does anyone have experience using
XP
themes on Japanese Windows? Any work arounds?
