Name of contribution: japanese Author's name: ING Location on CTAN: /language/japanese/japanese Summary description: A package which adds functionality of Japanese option in babel License type: lppl
Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Currently, the babel package does not provide a Japanese option. This package behaves in a similar way as if you provided (non-existent) Japanese option in the babel package so that you can handle Japanese language with it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/language/japanese/japanese . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=japanese (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).
