Font in INDEX I of Heisig RTK1 - tk2000 - 2007-01-20
Can someone identify the font that is used in INDEX I of RTK1?
Is it available anywhere?
The closest I could find was the EPSON 教科書体Ｍ font

This font works in MS Word but it prints out an incorrect character for the Kanji "orders" (Frame #1401), and all Kanji characters that contain it as a primitive. (Is there a workaround for this?)

According to the PDF, it's "SN", with variants "SN-AA", "SN-T" and "SN-W". Not very helpful I know, but maybe you can find some clue on Google.

Font? It's hand-drawn.
From the acknowledgements: "Furuhashi Mine 古橋実根 penned the characters in the text and Indexes".

"I find that it works just fine in Microsoft Word"
Have a look at http://www.wazu.jp/temp/EPSON.gif
Oops. Microsoft Word did not use the word correctly, and defaulted to Mincho.
I now see what you mean with the "hand-drawn font" version of the character.
