Japanese Unicode characters in Bricscad

I'm looking at AutoCAD alternatives for our company and Bricscad seems to have everything and more for a good price. However, I can't seem to get unicode characters to display properly, specifically Japanese characters. The code page is set to "ANSI_932" and the characters appear correct in some other CAD applications (AutoCAD, Draftsight, etc). The strange part is that the characters DO appear correctly in the "Edit Text" dialog when I try and edit a string with the unicode characters.

Am I missing something in Bricscad settings for the characters to display properly? As you can imagine, this is very important for us as we exchange DXF files with our parent Japanese company....

    Could you create a support request for this and attach a problem drawing to it so we can look into this issue?
    Please also mention which fonts are substituted when you open the drawing. These fonts are listed on the commandline.
