The first one is to research and classify the Japanese fonts now available in order to list them in a specimen that can be used for choosing fonts for printing and such. The second purpose is to make a comparison between the new classifications and conventional ones. The third purpose is to add new categories from digital fonts that are newly put into use to the conventional one. The resuls of this research show that the number of Japanese fonts has increased, and also that the number of categories into which Japanese fonts are classified has increased.
