Hello and Happy Postcrossing to everyone!

I’d like to try writing addresses in Chinese instead of printing them but noticed that their appearance is slightly different at the website Postcard ID page and in e-mail with Postcard ID. Could you please recommend which font is better to copy (which would be easier to avoid mistakes and more readable)? Not necessarily from these two options, I can choose a different font in a text editor.

Thanks in advance!

I meant these two versions:
fonts
Surprisingly, there’s no difference on smartphone, so it seems like something is wrong with fonts on my computer. Sorry for the confusion!

You can use either of those — whichever you feel more comfortable enlarging and copying. :slight_smile:

The address on the website is shown through an image, but on the email it’s typed with characters (with the image provided as an attachment). The characters shown on the email depend on the fonts that your computer has which support different scripts, hence the slight differences sometimes.

I suspect that some China websites are unavailable to Malaysia viewers. They placed restriction on viewer from Malaysia. But thank you for the helps.

Hi! I’ve just opened a topic in Chinese: click here!

It’s a question mainly for Hong Kongers, but if you’re from Mainland China and you know the answer, please make sure to go over there and write a reply!

Summary: I’ll be in a country from which I won’t be able to send mail to Hong Kong. Would it work if I addressed it to Mainland China, and then added “Hong Kong” in Chinese? Then it’ll be like sending mail to Hong Kong via China.

Is there anyone around from Taiwan who would like to participate in this Tag and thus unlock it? :slight_smile:
