Fonts for handwriting? - Tykkylumi - 2012-07-05 I've looked through the forums and couldn't find what I wanted, most of the external links were dead. I am looking for a font I can use whilst reviewing that shows me an average way of how the word/sentence would look handwritten in Japanese. Does anyone know of any decent font I can use to do this? Thanks! EDIT: and whilst I'm here, I may as well ask... is there a way to show the same field in anki twice using two different fonts? So I could have a printed font next to a handwritten font, for example.
