I might have found a way to do this, I'll give a try soon

I tried to add support for asian characters on MTF. I have a working test which render well inside gnome-terminal but I'm still having issue with ST3. As explained in this post, some monospace characters aren't well supported yet by OSes and browsers... I will open an issue on sublimehq's github.

It's first the time I'm working with asian character set, may be you know some way to make it work ? Basically two ascii characters should have the width of one asian character (fullwidth).

You can find mtf.py in branch 4_cjk_font which is a standalone cli script (no need of sublime) to format md table. It should support asian characters aswell.

simple_markdown/mtf.py -h
usage: mtf.py [-h] [-i] [-m MARGIN] [-p PADDING] [-j {left,center,right}] [-c]
              [-e ENCODING]
              input_file

positional arguments:
  input_file            input file to format

  -m MARGIN, --margin MARGIN

  -p PADDING, --padding PADDING
                        set padding
  -j {left,center,right}, --justify {left,center,right}
                        set default justification
  -c, --convert-cjk     Convert all characters to CJK if any is found

I have an idea to solve this problem in sublime text3. https://github.com/zh-five/MarkdownFormat

Thank you @zh-five , did you try the version from the version from https://github.com/bitwiser73/MarkdownTableFormatter/tree/4_cjk_font ? I am surprised ST3 seems to have better font rendering on Mac OS.
