What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open wakan.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
MS Mincho and MS Gothic don't work when you change your locale to japanese. You have
to change these fonts to something else.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.67—1.80.15. Win XP to 7.

That is because this fonts named in Japanese as ＭＳ 明朝 and ＭＳ ゴシック but WaKan looks only
for English names.

Fixed @r441, I believe. Thanks for bugreport, please wait for 1.8.16 release and reopen
this if the bug still exists (I think it shouldn't).

kreliahn: yeah, that was exactly it. Windows accepts both names, but Delphi's Screen.Fonts
lists only one, and that happens to be the native one, and Wakan just used that.
