Yes, this is a known issue for all CJK fonts especially on Windows platform. 
Problem is that I don't know how to config the poppler library to use system 
fonts. So the only way to get CJK fonts visualized is to embed the fonts in the 
pdf file.  Oddly, the pdf file doesn't show japanese characters on my linux PC 
where japanese fonts are installed.

Thanks.  I can try to embed Japanese fonts to my created PDFs, but cannot embed 
it to most PDFs provided by others...  It sounds hard to be fixed.
