mimosica Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Hello, I have a big problem... I'd like to be able to type in Japanese using the text tool in Affinity Designer, but whenever I use the text tool and type in Japanese, it gives me these yellow blocks... I think that Affinity Designer is available in Japanese as well, so I was wondering if this was a glitch, or if Japanese text is not supported in the English language software? I need to use Japanese in my work so it would be most helpful..... thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Callum Posted September 7, 2015 Staff Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hi Mimosica, To write in a different language you will need to have a font that supports that language. However with Japanese because the text goes from top to bottom the program doesn't currently support it. However Japanese is a language that we are working on implementing in the future. I hope this helps :) C Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Signguy Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 But you can type a single letter and press the enter/return key and the next letter will be placed below the first. Repeat this for each letter. Then adjust the spacing between the characters. I use this method to create vertical signs. Should work fine for Japanese characters as well.
