History 371: Japan to 1750

Special Fonts

• These pages also use Orient, a special font that I developed to display correctly the romanized versions of Japanese and Korean. In order to view these pages with the proper diacritical marks:
  • Please download and install the Mac or Windows 95 version of Orient.
  • The Mac verson is a self-extracting archive. To install the Mac version, drag the font to the Fonts folder in your System folder and restart your browser.
  • The Windows version is in ZIP format. To install the Windows version, drag the font to the Fonts folder in the System folder.
• If you do not wish to download Orient, please examine the character substitution table below. Note that the umlaut becomes the Japanese macron and the circumflex becomes the Korean breve.
• If you are using Internet Explorer 3.0 (or later) or Netscape 4.0 (or later), the browser will automically use Orient font where required. If you are using another browser please set the preferred display font to Orient.
