I added support for Japanese and Chinese ps and pdf documents by using my
scripts from Debian Reference. It builds really well on Woody and Sarge.
I filled once a bugreport against debiandoc-sgml but I don't know the
current support of Asian languages in debiandoc-sgml (and Woody
will not affected by recent changes so we need a patch anyway).
I'm very sorry but I was never able to support Korean. Are there
even free LaTeX fonts available????
It should be very simple to use these scripts for other documents such as
Debian Installer manual. Frans, please try it out.
Just add debiandoc2latexpdf, debiandoc2latexps which are copies from the
files in the debiandoc-sgml package and call ./fixlatex.
You need to add a few dependencies as well, mostly Asian font packages.
Please see the dependencies of the debian-reference* packages for details.
Maybe ../../bin would be another good location for these files?
Since I lost by debian-doc account (I know my password but forgot my
account name :-)) I cannot commit it.
PS: There exist two nearly identical copies of the German version:
maint-guide.de.sgml maint-guide.de.WIP.sgml
Please remove maint-guide.de.WIP.sgml, the other file is newer and
better (except one typo fix).

Very strange: It seems my mails get lost when I add many or large files
(appr. 30kB, provider limit 4MB!), so here is Makefile and the rest is
attached.
