Can I use these fonts commercially?

Yes. All fonts used are from Google Fonts and are licensed under the SIL Open Font License (OFL), which allows commercial use including logos, marketing materials, and merchandise.

Will the fonts work on all browsers?

Yes. The Japanese calligraphy fonts are compatible with Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge. All modern browsers fully support Unicode Japanese text rendering.

What is the difference between Mincho and Gothic styles?

Mincho (明朝体) is a serif style with fine horizontal strokes and triangular serifs — traditional and elegant. Gothic (ゴシック体) is a sans-serif style with uniform stroke width — modern and clean.

What is Shodō (書道) calligraphy?

Shodō literally means "the way of writing." It is the traditional Japanese art of calligraphy, practiced with a brush (fude) and ink (sumi) on washi paper. Our brush styles like Yuji Syuku and Yuji Boku reflect Shodō aesthetics.

Can I use Japanese calligraphy for social media bios?

Yes. Copy any font style and paste directly into your Instagram bio, Twitter/X name, TikTok profile, or YouTube channel description. The Unicode fonts display correctly on all major platforms.

Type your name in the input box using romaji (English letters) and select a font style, or research the katakana spelling of your name (used for foreign names in Japanese) and type that for authentic results.

What is the difference between hiragana and katakana?

Hiragana (ひらがな) has 46 curved characters used for native Japanese words and grammar. Katakana (カタカナ) has 46 angular characters used for foreign loanwords, names, and onomatopoeia.

Is my text data private?

Yes. All font generation happens locally in your browser. We do not store, transmit, or process your input text on any server. Your privacy is fully protected.

Can I paste Japanese calligraphy into Photoshop or Word?

Yes. Since the output uses standard Unicode text with font styling, you can paste it into Microsoft Word, Photoshop, Canva, Figma, and other design software. Install the matching Google Font for identical rendering.

What are the best Japanese calligraphy fonts for tattoos?

For tattoo designs, brush-style fonts like Yuji Syuku (ink brush), Yuji Boku (bold brush), and Klee One (flowing brush) most closely resemble hand-painted Shodō calligraphy. Use with a bold ink color for the best preview.
