Yes, fontconfig.properties is not exist. You have to copy it.

Above description means all font configurations for Japanese are
configurured for sazanami. If you would like to use Japanese with
dialog-plain font, You have to write this:

dialog.plain.japanese-x0201=-sazanami-mincho-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-c-*-jisx0\201.1976-0
dialog.plain.japanese-x0208=-sazanami-mincho-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-c-*-jisx0\208.1983-0

cheers,
