I confirmed the behavior which you reported with using the same environment.
However I think it depends on what kind of font your Emacs uses.

Please try the following setting. Japanese characters render correctly.

(set-default-font "MS Gothic 10")

Changing the default font indeed corrects the font rendering problem.
However, out of the box emacs should not show this problem to an
ordinary users who don't even know how the existence of .emacs file.
So let's fix it.  We need Windoze experts' (I am not) insight to this.

Certainly emacs with default setting (e.g. "runemacs.exe -q") should
show any Japanese characters correctly. I agree with your opinion.

Emacs 23.1.94 pretest

[Chong Yidong]

Emacs pretest 23.1.94 is now available for download via FTP, at the
following location:

  ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-23.1.94.tar.gz

The xdelta against the Emacs 23.1.93 pretest is here:

  ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-23.1.93-23.1.94.xdelta

This is the fifth pretest for what will be the Emacs 23.2 release.

Thanks.

Some Japanese characters don't render correctly.  One such example
character is the middle letter in the word game "ゲーム".  Another one
I found is the dot character here between 1 and 2 "１・２".

It is tested on GNU Emacs 23.1.94.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7600) running on
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (6.1, Build 7600).  This problem is not
new and has been observed for some time.

Did this problem occur in Emacs 23.1 as well?

What does C-u C-x = say about those characters?

Re: Emacs 23.1.94 pretest

This previously reported problem is still resent in the pretest GNU
Emacs 23.1.96.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7600) running on Windoze 7.

Please, file a bug report with as much detail as you can provide.
This applies to any problem you encounter, and helps ensure they don't
get overlooked.
