First I change the netbeans_jdkhome in the
/usr/local/netbeans65/etc/netbeans.conf as following:

   netbeans_jdkhome="/usr/local/openjdk6"

and also prepare a fontconfig.properties at this place:

   /usr/local/openjdk6/jre/lib/fontconfig.properties

then japanese font is fine same as before using the jdk16.

for example (it seems that the dialog.plain.japanese-x0208
was mainly used in my NB settings):

#dialog.plain.japanese-x0208=-kochi-gothic-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1983-0
dialog.plain.japanese-x0208=-ricoh-hgheiseikakugothictaiw3-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1983-0
