Thanks Bob and Atul, I still can't seem to create a doc in OOwriter that contains japanese text. I can't find any documentation about this that pertains to Ubuntu, or more generally linux. Most of the forums deal with doing this under windows. I am running SCIM if that is part of the clue. Thanks for all of your help!
