- I don't know where you can get a complete character processor, but
- there are Postscript hiragana and katakana fonts available on my
- web page. They are from the Wadalab Font Project, which has made available
- the sources to generate a number of Japanese font sets.
-
- The characters in the font are mapped to specific keys, however, so you
- don't actually spell the words in romaji. The archive includes a
- postscript reference sheet for the fonts (i.e. which key maps to which
- character), which I created in Final Writer.
-
- The URL is:

- http://www.omg.unb.ca/~dfleet/nihongo/
-
- If you are interested in more than just the kana, there is also a link to
- the Wadalab archives on that page.
-
- Good luck in your search - I'd like to see a complete Japanese processor
- for the Amiga myself.
