latex-cjk-xcjk 4.8.2+git20090105-4 (i386 binary) in ubuntu maverick

 CJK is a macro package for LaTeX. This package gives you the possibility
 to include Chinese (traditional and simplified), Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese,
 Korean, and many more scripts in your (La)TeX documents through XeLaTeX,
 which is based on the modern XeTeX engine.
 .
 It allows you to directly use TrueType fonts without any conversion or
 extra packages.
 .
 latex-cjk-xcjk suggests a whole bunch of Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Thai
 fonts that are guaranteed to work with xCJK, but any other TTF should work
 just as well.
 .
 Have a look at latex-cjk-common for a more detailed description.
