UD Digi Kyokasho font family

Overview

The UD Digi Kyokasho font family is a Windows font that is primarily intended to support the Japanese language for the education market. It does support characters used in English and other western European languages but was created primarily to support the Japanese language. If you want to use the UD Digi Kyokasho font family on a non-Japanese machine, please install the optional feature, "Japanese Supplemental Fonts".

“The design of the font adheres to the Japan’s Government requirements to eliminate discrimination against people with disabilities (effective since 2016). It also conforms to the educational curriculum guidelines. The font maintains the directionality of handwriting, and the shapes of tear drops and sweeps, by carefully controlling the weight of the strokes. Research shows that the font increases readability of textbook content.” — Morisawa Inc.
