I attach an easy translation.

I dunno, but I'll look for this.

BTW, new born "GS-CJK" project is trying to enhance Ghostscript to be
not only Japanized but I18nized.  They have already released some
patches, but they are experimental ones, and I don't think that they
are good for Pkgsrc.

                  Japanization patch kit for GS7.00
                          gs700-j-vlib.zip

This is a Japanization patch kit for Ghostscript 7.00. This patch derives from
gs5.50-vflib-1.0 written by Akira Tanaka.

Installation:

1.
  After installing original Ghostscript 7.00 for Windows, extract
  gs700-j-vflib.zip on to the directory where Ghostscript is installed.
  (this will be possibly C:/gs.)
2.
  Add C:\gs\gs7.00\bin into the PATH environmental variable.
3.
  Set the GS_LIB environmental variable like
    GS_LIB=C:/gs/gs7.00/lib;C:/gs/gs7.00/vflib;C:/gs/fonts
4.
  Prepare 'vfontcap', whose sample is included in dvipsk-w32.tar.gz.  Set the
  VFONTCAP environmental variable unless the 'vfontcap' file is not located in
  C:\usr\local\share\texmf\dvips\vfontcap.  Correct the 'Windows fonts' item in
  vfontcap so that the item directs to the actual font directory.
