Re: [OSM-ja] フライヤー

[Juan Lucas Dominguez Rubio]

Hello, Taro-san,
 
Thank you for your message.
 
I've been having fun today, testing the Japanese fonts I have in my computer. You can see the test in this PDF file:
   
  http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/images/6/69/Japanese_fonts.pdf
   
  Please open it and tell me which one is the best font type in your opinion. I have my opinion, but I must not choose it because I am not used to the Japanese caligraphy... so all of you have to decide which one is the best.
 
If someone has a nice font type in your own computer, maybe you can find the TTF file that describes it, and if you send it to me, I can do another test. Perhaps the TTF file is in your folder:
 
C:\Windows\Fonts
 
Regards,
Lucas

Yes, This is a version that I checked on 5th Apr, when I tought
Japanese version flyer. At that time, I opened to edit this
PDF file by my Adobe Illustrator, but Illustrator couldn't
read this PDF. Maybe this includes some elements that
Illustrator can't treat. My problem has solve, it seems
you can treat Japanese charactors and I am feeling happy.

Oh! LaTex! I used to use jLaTeX (Japanese Latex) about 20years
ago (mid 1980s), for writing some book in Japanese. Others
OSM and Kanji-Hiragana also love, too. Very interesting!



note that my worry about images is ... it seems Japanese may not
notice these images is a map. Usually Japanese city does not
have star-form streets, and does not have rounds. Japanese
city is squere-form(where new city) or spiral-form(where old castle
town), so almost all of Japanese may not familier with
star-form streets that these images show... But redrawing these
images with Japanese-style cities seems become very hard work.

Thanks for your reading.
