<p>I wanted to add a UTF-8 font in Gvim but I could not find out how to do this.
I tried to follow the step on this manual but it still did not work.

<p>Can anyone tell me how to add a font in Vim so I can have Japanese characters displayed ?</p>

Quote from the
vim documentation
:
For MS-Windows, some fonts have a limited number of Unicode characters.  Try
using the "Courier New" font.  You can use the Edit/Select Font... menu to
select and try out the fonts available.  Only fixed-width fonts can be used
though.  Example:
```
```
:set guifont=courier_new:h12
```
```
So, I guess, unless you find a fixed width font containing the characters you want to display, then you are out of luck.
