Title: Japanese typewriter
Post by: xkonyayx on February 07, 2017, 05:23:32 AM
Hello to all!
Very need a TRUE typewriter with Japanese symbols for my new release design. Maybe any have it and can help? Or, if I do not find, can someone has the computer fonts stylized under the typewriter fonts which will be suitable for Japanese symbols? Thanks!
P.S. - for help I guarantee to present gift this release from 3 x tapes box set ;)

Good luck finding such a typewriter; as I can see those things are expensive... Have you already tried to search for a suitable font?

Yes, of course, but all PC fonts what I found not valid for Japanese symbols(

Probably your best bet is to try and find such thing on a japanese auction site. Even then it won't be cheap as on top of the cost of the item itself, you gotta pay both postage and to the middle man who actually buys the item and ships it for you (most if not all japanese people won't ship overseas). Anyway, good luck!
