Can you please make a mobile phone friendly list. Actually, i browse from my mobile and my phone does not support any other font except the latin alphabet. I would be happy if i could get a complete one page list of n5 kanji without seeing squares & boxes Reply

Hello, I don’t understand well, if your phone only support the latin alphabet does it mean you want a list of Kanji without kanji ? Best Regards, Sophie Coureau Reply

No, I meant to say that whereever the kanji appears , instead of putting it as a text font, a small image (enough to be visible) can be replaced in that place. Though the page may become a bit longer, it will help many such people who browse by non-japanese devices. Although clicking on the kanji link gives an enlarged image, but doing it 104 times would be
expensive.(mobile internet is much costlier, at least where i live).So, it would be beneficial.

You can print the list as a pdf. There is a small description how to do this at the bottom of the page I think. Reply

I’m also after this list in the same format as the one you’re offering for N5, with each kanji on a separate page and boxes to be filled in for practice. I’m all up for paying for such a e-book if that’s the case. Reply
