[comp.sys.mac.system] TrueType Japanese Fonts Anybody?

Hello fellow netters (netto no minasan konnichiwa),

I was wondering if anybody knows of some place where I can obtain TrueType
fonts for System J-6.0.5.  Do such beasts exist yet?  On a related note, does
anybody know when the Japanese version of System 7.0 will be available?    
After using J-6.0.5 for a while, I've come to the conclusion that the fonts
supplied with the system are either too large (12 point) or too small (9 point)
when printed out on the ImageWriter II or a LaserWriter II-NTX (not the NTX-J).
Kyoto 12 point is nice enough for personal use and casual business use 
(for faxes, for example), but look a little "un-professional" for formal use 
when compared to the output from any of the popular waapuro's. I think that the
solution lies in finding a scalable font, so that I can print out something like
10 or 11 point sizes.  I guess for that matter, Type 1 fonts would be OK too
since I believe ATM can use Type 1 fonts (is that right?). 
Any help would be greatly appreciated (If anybody could e-mail me a binhexed 
copy of such a font, if it exists, I would be especially grateful).  Thanks.
