2-byte fonts in lyrics?

I am curious: can Notion support 2-byte characters (Japanese, Korean, Chinese) in lyrics?

So far this has been a real problem.

Well Mr. P, realize then that if Notion can handle such well, then it is an unique attribute at this time.

Sibelius handles such VERY slowly, sometimes bombs and is unusable (OSX). Overture can handle this fairly well if one types directly into the score but misses all of the underscore dashes if one has a tied note value with a word that is held through. The text editing window is completely useless too.

This is a definite advantage since I have to work in musicals in Asia.

Thanks for the information.
