Well, I didn't know before😅, but it's easy to work with japanese texts in vertical style inside Affinity Designer V2 and even in V1. Also, it will change all punctuation marks that work only for vertical writing style. Take a look on this video. vertical - Trim.mp4 You only needs to change the typography alternative on Text Style> Typography> All alternatives: change 0 to 2. And is done. The same option is right here on the 3 dots. I figure it out about alternatives right on this panel: So, I thought on going to text style and automate those changes. I had the following issue, but I get it now! Start by changing to Heading 2, (it will revert to the default font Arial). Then, inside the Edit Text Style panel> Font Family>from [No change] to [Hiragino Font], this action will break that previous alternative. I just realized that only the Hiragino font weights W0 and W7 work for vertical style on my PC!! (These two fonts where originally from my MacBook, so I converted them to use on windows.) The font MS Gothic is from the windows system, and it doesn't have and alternative to change the horizontal bar to vertical. By the time I wrote this post, I had figured out the issue regarding changing typography to a vertical style. I hope it helps! I just don't understand if MS Gothic font isn't complete or something, that's why this won't work...

I'm sorry that I'm not good at English. I'd like to use the vertical writing in Japanese. Vertical writing functions are essential in Japanese, especially for DTP software such as "publisher". Japanese creators are currently hesitant to purchase the product simply because it does not have this feature. I am afraid that only Japanese are the only users of this system, but please consider implementing it.

Please add a caution to the product description that Affinity can not handle Asian vertical writing. On all stores - Serif store, Apple app store and MS app store, especially in Japanese Many many users complains after they purchased Affinity and they put Affinity down on Social Media because of disappointment. See these complains, this has been going on since long time ago and will continue until you implement vertical writing. https://twitter.com/search?q=affintiy 縦書き&src=typed_query&f=live

Please support Japanese vertical writing. This is the function most needed by Japanese. Website with detailed explanation: https://w3c.github.io/jlreq/#vertical-writing-mode-and-horizontal-writing-mode Adobe uses this because it supports vertical writing in Japanese. This is the only reason why I and my workplace cannot adopt “Affinity”. If this problem is solved, “Affinity” may become the top share in the Japanese market. Can Japanese donate development costs to support vertical writing in Japanese? In Japan, Adobe dominates the market. That is not good. The Japanese market requires the emergence of competitors that compete with Adobe. I hope that Affinity plays an active role for Japan.
