Hi, Mark.  My only experience is with Fuyu and Hachiya.  I don't know how the 
Japanese dry persimmons, but one method I've heard of is to peel the fruits 
why still firm, string them like pearls on sturdy twine, and hang them in a 
cool, dry, dust- and insect-free environment to dry.  I don't know how long 
it takes, having never tried it myself.  A more fool-proof method would be to 
use a dehydrator.
