I had the same problem with Greek fonts. Whenever I used my Greek keyboard, I got nothing but ????? and some other strange symbols.
I figured out a way to write with Greek fonts in Photoshop, I guess that it will also work with Japanese. It's this way:
1: Open another program where you can type Japanese without any problems (Microsoft Word for example).
2: Write your text in Japanese
3: select and copy your text
4: go to photoshop, press the type button and paste what you selected.
Try it. If it worked with Greek, probably it will also work with Japanese.
Regards

Welcome to the board CocaColin and juanjose1967 
Why don't you go to Google Groups? [confused]
http://groups.google.com
They have all the answers you need.
Type for example: GREEK PHOTOSHOP or JAPANESE PHOTOSHOP
Copy/paste works, but don't you think that millions of others in Japan or Greece have the same problems and that there is a simple solution...just some logical thinking
Good luck!

Just something else to try for this...
Take those Japanese fonts of yours, and go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts\ on your HD. Then dump your special fonts in that folder.
NOTE: select and drag them temporarily from the system FONTS folder, until after this test. Put them back if it doesn't work.
What this does is load these specific fonts within this special folder into Photoshop, but without the fonts having to be installed through your OS. This is just something else to try... no promises... hope it ends up working though... that would be a nice fluke. :}

Welcome aboard juanjose1967! 
I don't have any experience with foreign fonts, but your suggestion "makes sense" to me, as this is the same method that I use to cut + paste special characters!
CocaColin, I hope that Mark's dirty little trick/suggestion works for you! [excited] Do let us know!!!
