Question- Japanese font
|
|
I �m relatively new to the site, and I �ve already uploaded a worksheet that I made, but on the preview I can �t see the Japanese characters (they read as boxes). I have other worksheets I �d like to upload, but am worried that people who want to use them will get a worksheet with boxes instead of instructions. Since I �m teaching in Japan, I find it helpful to put the instructions in Japanese, but I am wondering if someone downloads one of my worksheets, are they able to see the Japanese font (providing, of course, they have the software on their computer to read it) or does something happen when I upload them to corrupt the font? Thank you for your help. |

Hi,
I am working in japan too.... I know what you mean.... but most computers will not have the japanese font installed... and some programs will display the fonts as a bunch of weird symbols or it some message will come up asking if you would like to download a japanese font.... If you really want to use a japanese font in your uploads you should make the text into a jpeg image....

I have Japanese characters and use Japanese characters on my computer. When downloading various sheets from other sites, I can read them easily. From this site, I �m not so sure. But, a good question was posed from the previous responder. Get your students to understand simple instructions in English. When I teach Japanese to Canadian students I use simple, simple instructions in Japanese. After repeated usage they will understand. You can of course explain the instructions to them in Japanese, then switch to English, In that way they will associate the two different languages as the same instructions. かんたんですね。See if you can read that.
