http://ja.openoffice.org/ Tools|Options|OpenOffice.org|Language Settings|Languages|Asian Japanese + Enabled for Asian Languages & CTL. then you will notice that additional Asian format options will be available on your Format (para/char) options. Format|Paragraph|Alignment|Properties - Text direction|Left-to-right However, I do not believe you will be able to go from vertical to horizontal unless the kanji is in a frame. If you turn on show paragraph marks, you'll probably see that there is a mark after each vertical character. If so, your stuck copy & pasting each character into a horizontal line. cc'd to Heinz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
