Tested with Merlin beta b22 on Windows Japanese.

Japanese characters' width is not equal in plain style with 22 point or smaller and antialias OFF.
JIS X 0212 characters' width are wider than others.

This problem is seen on WinNT and 98.
On Win95 JIS X 0212 characters are not be displayed.

This is reproducible with Kestrel FCS for Win32, therfore, this problem is not a regression.

To reproduce,

1. Launch Font2DTest (jdk1.4/demo/jfc/Font2DTest/Font2DTest.jar)
2. Select one of the font among Dialog, DialogInput, MonoSpaced and SansSerif.
3. Input 22 or smaller in a text field for Size.
4. Select Other from Unicode Range.
5. Input 3000 or 4e00 in a text field for Unicode Range.
6. Select one of the method from DrawMethod except drawBytes.
Then, you can see the ploblem.
for exapmple, the character which code is one of 3004, 3010~3037, 3094 30f7~30fa, 4e02, 4e04, 4e05... are wider.

This problem is not reproducible with Serif.

----------

3004, 30F7~30fa, 4e02, 4e04, 4e05 don't seem wider but bold even in Plain style.

This is reproducible with jdk1.4 b49.

It's a matter of translation of the concept from Japanese into
English - "wide" and "bold" I found that width of the strings of character (KANJI) were wider, which means "bold" as above. The characters themselves weren't wider in size.

This is still reproducible with Merlin-beta b53 on WinNT.
