Have you ever wanted to "jazz" up a document with the addition of some Japanese characters? Have you ever wanted clear crisp Japanese characters at any font size? Have you ever wanted to use Japanese characters in applications that don't work with the language kit? Well, with the addition of the Japanese Font Package, you can do just that!

What is the Japanese Font Package?

The Japanese Font Package is a collection of Hiragana, Katakana and some special characters that are unique to Japanese. The use of these characters is made possible through a keyboard layout similar to those used in Japan. Rather than using Romanji, each character can be written with the push of a button!
Ê
Each key is given a special Japanese character as it's output.  The character to the right of the standard letter, is the hiragana or katakana key that will be printed when entered.

The Japanese Font Package includes pictures of the entire Japanese keyboard which have been provided in various graphics formats. (PICT, GIF and JPEG)  It is recommended that you print out the keyboard layout and use it to determine which Japanese characters you wish to type.

What files are included with this font package?

The Japanese Font Package includes essentially four things:

1.  Hiragana Brush font.  This font comes complete with a bitmapped version, a TrueType version, and a PostScript Type 1 version  (for use with ATM).

2.  Katakana Brush font.  This font also comes complete with a bitmapped version, a TrueType version, and a PostScript Type 1 version  (for use with ATM).

3.  Keyboard Layout Folder.  Inside this folder there are 3 images of the hiragana and katakana layout you will use.  These files are all identical, however they have been converted into different graphics formats for easy viewing/printing.  These formats are PICT, GIF and JPEG.  Use your favorite graphics program to print out the layout for use with typing in Japanese.

4.  Complete manual!  This manual should answer all of your questions, however if you still have questions or comments, you can send email to:  inaka@tdl.com
