Like the first character center aligned, the 2nd character underneath (on the next line) again center aligned and so on. (Japanese/Chinese names display option) Thanks for you patience.

A direct input into Genopro does not work. So I have all the names first written into Word, and copy > paste from there into Genopro. I have kept the input of japanese text so far to the names only. If I want to put more text in japanese, most probably I transfer the file to my wife's computer (japanese Windows). I will do after the final Genopro Version 2.0 is out. The input of japanese characters is very simple after you have learned the basics. Like "maru" i.e., you hit the keyboard "m a r u" and then the space buttom, it gives you then a choice of japanese characters. You then have to select the correct one for your purpose, like 丸 and confirm with enter. The font is automatically selected when you use WORD. On a japanese computer you have more choices with regard to fonts.
