Designer's Notes

Amaze your friends. Astound people with your linguistic Acumen. Explain to them that on a recent trip to the far east you discovered the secret of easily understanding this writing. Then simply tilt your head to the left and read it plain as day.

You see, this font is really just the Latin alphabet made to look like an exotic far east script and tilted on its side. Use all caps to achieve this effect and write your text vertically, from bottom to top.

You can also write things out horizontally, which is easier for graphics programs or if you just want to write with this font normally. But what fun would that be? The right side up characters are lower case.
