Template:Ja/doc

This template is for displaying Japanese text. Example:  = text    = Japanese text rollover = explanatory text to display in rollover, default "Japanese text" ruby    = optional ruby text

"Ruby text" is for the pronunciation guide that appears overtop the actual text (or beside if the browser doesn't support it), example:  =

This template tries to force the text to be displayed in a font that supports Japanese. Hopefully any computer will have at least one of them on it. The fonts used are, in the order they are attempted:
 * Arial Unicode MS (any system with Microsoft Office, Mac OS X x10.5+)
 * Code2000 (older well-known Unicode font)
 * EPSON
 * Meiryo (all Windows since Vista)

We borrowed this template from SmashWiki, so we didn't look too hard into seeing how valid their font choices are. It seems alright at first glance anyways.
