Ahh, ok. I assumed that all the DDTP translations are provided in
UTF-8 but this seems not to be true for Japanese at least. I
should ask grisu about this. Can you please check if the pages
use different encodings (in which case it is a DDTP problem) or
if they use all EUC-JP (in which case it is a problem of my scripts)?
