Ok, so I'm doing a banner in several languages, I have everything done but I have a doubt now...
The client asked for a layout that is compliant with their new image campaign wich I did and they approved, but the layout includes a vertical sidenote next to a photo, giving credits to the photographer... (has to be that way)the question is, in japanese do they read vertical text? and by vertical text I mean character rotation by 90 degrees

they read from right to left

if you make it vertical, just make it so that it goes simply from right to left,
if its in english just write it normally

they read both ways, on the internet they read the same as us.

actually they only read right to left verticaly, horizontaly they read left to right... but that wasn't my point...
the question is, do they read rotated characters?
