Why go to all that trouble? Surely it would be easier just to use the method belowĪlso, as you said, your wife can write this out, so why go to the trouble of creating partitions/intalling os’es?!?

It’s also useful to have a vector EPS version lying around if the client requests the type to go onto printed artwork… you would have to do this process anyway for this (if you want a nice quality output!). You could skip the ‘auto-trace’ stage, but it will make the type look much nicer quality if you spend a little more time on it. I would then clean this up (remove any stray points, smooth it out a bit), and there you go… perfect Japanese type! Once it is saved out of your vector application as an EPS, you can rasterise it any size you want in Photoshop, and you will get perfect smooth outlines. This takes a bitmap image, and converts it to vector artwork. Then I would take this into Freehand (or Illustrator/any good vector application should have this function), and ‘auto-trace’ it. Then I would scan it in, turn it into greyscale, and adjust the levels so I had a good solid outline. This shouldn’t cost much if there is only a bit of type (if you are clever with what you say, you might even get it for free!!).

You are into a whole different alphabet and grammar and I certainly wouldn’t trust any of the free font’s you get off the net to actually represent any sort of proper alphabet!!įor this, I personally would pay someone to write out the text in Japanese (bear with me!!). However, it is a completely different matter if you need the type to say something in actual Japanese.

Just look for free fonts using your favorite search engines, and check out the ones in the thread below:

There are loads of free font sites out there, and you are sure to find what you want in no time if this is what you are after. You will probably find them under ‘dings’ ‘picture fonts’ or ‘clip fonts’. I’m not quite sure what you mean, but here are two solutions… Hopefully one of these will satisfy…ĭo you need just Japanese type that doesn’t mean anything - a graphical element that looks authentic? In which case, try some of the sites mentioned in the thread below for Oriental ‘pictorial’ type fonts.
