What exactly does a font mean?

Vertical and horizontal fonts, as the name implies, means that characters can be arranged vertically or horizontally, and different arrangement methods can produce different effects on different occasions. Horizontal arrangement can display more information, for example, articles on web pages are usually arranged horizontally. Vertical arrangement is more concise and beautiful.

If you want to use fonts well, you need to have certain aesthetic and design knowledge and accumulate experience.

In a word, horizontal and vertical fonts, as a way of arrangement, can exert different effects on different occasions. For a designer, it is very important to master the skills of using horizontal and vertical fonts.
