Japanese character corruption in Help's (.hhk) keyword search headings

Can someone give me some advice on character corruption in keyword search heading in Help file (.hhk)? The original files are created by FrameMaker and I used WebWork Publisher to compile those files.

When I clicked those corrupted headings, it leads to a page without any corruption.

Thanks!

You will probably find the .hhk is UTF8 encoded which will cause the problem you are seeing, it needs to be native encoded, ShiftJIS for Japanese.
