Textastic is a coder's editor. So, like for example TextMate on the Mac, it relies on Monospaced fonts and the fact that each character has the same width. This is not true for Japanese characters - so after some testing I decided to display them at 60% of their size so that they don't overlap. That's better than displaying nothing at all but Textastic really works best with Western/Latin characters.

Interesting, thanks for reporting this. Can you send me a screenshot of the selection in Pages so I can try to reproduce the problem?

Please check your FTP account settings – I need more information in order to help. You can contact me at support at textasticapp dot com.

Will be available in Textastic 2.1

This is fixed for Textastic 2.1.

This will be added in Textastic 2.1.

Thanks, I will try to implement this.

I'll fix this in the next update. I can confirm that Good Reader renders it correctly while Textastic doesn't at the moment.

Interesting idea! I'll consider it.
