2 questions re:writing Japanese text vertically
Posted: Tue Jun 03, 2008 4:51 am
I'm a native English speaker who is learning Japanese. My post has some Japanese translations for Japanese readers. Do not be afraid.
I have 2 problems. Please look at the attached file.
1) The "hyphen" in katakana words to elongate the sound (for example, in クラスメート, the line between "メ" and "と") should be standing up like the the letter "l" (lowercase of "L").
2) Small つ、よ、ゆ、や、etc (for example, the "ゅ"and "っ" in しゅっしん) should be placed in the upper right corner of the box, and not in the center.
これらの問題にはどうすれば解決ですか?
(How can we solve these 2 problems?)
Thanks.

P.S.
(Note:
I'm trying to use OO.O writer to produce for me something like the pictures in http://www.mori7.net/gennkou.php. I believe the format is called 原稿用紙 genkou-youshi. I've already have Japanese input working. That's not the problem. And I've got vertical (right-to-left) writing working. I've have the grid showing.I've looked through Oo.o Writer's Format/Page/ [Page] and [Text Grid], but I don't see the answer there.)
