# babel-japanese
The package "babel-japanese" (or shortly, "japanese" package) provides
`japanese` option for Babel package. It defines all the language
definition macros in Japanese.
Currently this package works on pLaTeX, upLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX.
## Limitations
Note that this package is not perfect: the word order in Japanese is
different from that in most Western languages including English, so
the words like "Part" or "Chapter" cannot be replaced with Japanese
counterpart. This limitation is due to the design of classes.dtx
(article.cls etc), which has \chaptername in front of the numbering
but no sequence behind the number.
The common Japanese classes including (u)jclasses in (u)pLaTeX,
jsclasses, ltj(s)classes in LuaTeX-ja are well-supported.
## Installation
1) Process japanese.ins with some tex engine. For example, using lualatex:
lualatex japanese.ins
When you use platex, give -kanji=utf8 option.
platex -kanji=utf8 japanese.ins
You will get japanese.ldf (the main code) and japanese-sample.tex (sample
document for pLaTeX).
2) Process documentation, japanese.dtx and japanese-sample.tex, as you wish.
japanese.dtx can be processed with pLaTeX, upLaTeX or LuaLaTeX.
japanese-sample.tex is written for pLaTeX.
platex -kanji=utf8 japanese.dtx
dvipdfmx japanese.dvi
platex -kanji=utf8 japanese-sample.tex
dvipdfmx japanese-sample.dvi
3) Deploy the directory or files in an appropriate place under the TEXMF tree.
* japanese.ldf
=> $TEXMF/tex/latex/japanese
* japanese.dtx
=> $TEXMF/source/latex/japanese
* japanese.pdf, japanese-sample.tex, japanese-sample.pdf
=> $TEXMF/doc/latex/japanese
4) Execute mktexlsr.
