🧐 Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What languages are supported?
A. This tool is optimized for Japanese vertical text, including proper punctuation alignment. While it can display other languages vertically, characters and punctuation in languages not traditionally written this way may not render as expected.
Q. Why generate an image instead of just text?
A. Most social media platforms do not natively support vertical text formatting. By converting your text into an image, you ensure that the unique layout, font, and design are perfectly preserved and displayed correctly on any device or platform.
Q. Can I use the generated images for commercial purposes?
A. Yes. You own the copyright to the text you provide. The generated images can be used freely for both personal and commercial projects without attribution.
📚 The Art of Vertical Writing (Tategaki)
Vertical writing, or 'Tategaki' (縦書き) in Japanese, is the traditional writing system in Japan. Lines run from top to bottom, and columns proceed from right to left. This format is still widely used today in novels, newspapers, and manga. On the web, this elegant layout is achieved using the CSS property writing-mode: vertical-rl;. In a sea of horizontal text on social media feeds, a vertically composed image instantly stands out, capturing attention and conveying a sense of literary flair and sophistication.
