Nobody seems to respond to it, unfortunately. Here is an solution. 

(Assuming that you have already installed kochi font(pkgsrc/fonts/kochi-ttf) using pkgsrc.)  

1. In case of sun-jre14 (pkgsrc/lang/sun-jre14):

  % cd /usr/pkg/java/sun-1.4/lib
  % sudo mv font.properties.ja font.properties.ja.orig
  % sudo cp font.properties.ja.Redhat8.0 font.properties.ja
  % sudo vi font.properties.ja

diff -c font.properties.ja.Redhat8.0 font.properties.ja*** font.properties.ja.Redhat8.0      Wed Jan  5 12:53:53 2005
--- font.properties.ja  Wed Jan  5 13:12:32 2005

2. In case of sun-jre15 (pkgsrc/lang/sun-jre15)

   This is much easer than sun-jre14. Just do like this.

   % sudo mkdir /usr/pkg/java/sun-1.5/lib/fonts/fallback
   % sudo ln -s /usr/pkg/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/* /usr/pkg/java/sun-1.5/lib/fonts/fallback/.


That's all. 

HTH,
