Additional Fonts with Enhanced Quality

• Outline Font - 4 Fonts
• TrueType Font - 14 Standard Fonts, 14 Unicode Fonts

The outline font is smaller in size and faster to load, and can be used with a font editor to create new characters. However, the quality of True Type fonts is superior, especially when characters must be enlarged to a certain size.

Utilities

Meta Converter
This utility program is designed to facilitate the use of Japanese characters in graphics applications which do not allow double-byte characters to be processed. One selects the characters that are to be used, adjusts the settings as desired in the program, and the program converts them into a Windows Meta File format that is suitable for use by graphics applications.

Single Byte Converter
When Japanese characters cannot be used in a graphics application (such as CorelDraw), the more powerful Single-Byte Converter can be used as an alternative to the Meta Converter to create new single-byte fonts. Basically, a new font thus created can be used on all Windows-based computers - even those without Japanese Partner installed. Each single byte font mimics the properties of an English font and can hold a maximum of 188 characters.

Font Editor
Japanese Partner’s font editor allows users to construct and edit any of the TwinBridge Outline fonts or system bitmap fonts within the Japanese Partner system.

Character Map
The Character Mapping Table is used to browse or search for specific characters among the different internal code standards. The characters in the table may be pasted into the document using the clipboard as a medium.

Input Method Dictionary Manager
The Input Method Manager performs character insertion and deletion management functions. It allows your dictionaries to have control over the following tasks: assigning an input code to a newly created character; adding new phrases to the dictionary; changing codes for existing characters and phrases; and deletion of unused or incorrect words and phrases. When combined with the self-learning features of TwinBridge, this program will enable you to have a dictionary that is fully customized to your needs. The input method dictionary manager is also used by the system to locate the characters matching a given input code.
