What people change in a cover letter
- ✓Date and recipient address
- ✓Hiring manager's name in the greeting
- ✓Company name throughout the body
- ✓The paragraph on why this role
- ✓Your signature above your typed name
Typing Japanese
Type with your own keyboard or input method. The editor accepts any Unicode text. Characters to check after editing: 漢字、ひらがな、カタカナ.
Which font new Japanese text uses
First the font your PDF already uses for Japanese, even when only a few of its letters are embedded: MythosPDF loads the complete font and sets new letters in it. If the PDF has no Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana font at all, it asks before adding an open Noto font for those letters, and tells you it did.

Questions people ask
+Can I sign my cover letter?
Yes. Press Sign in the editor and place your signature above your typed name.
+Will applicant tracking systems read it?
Yes. Edited text is real text, just like the rest of the letter.
+Can I write parts of the cover letter in Japanese and parts in English?
Yes. Each language is set in the font the PDF uses for it, so a bilingual cover letter keeps both fonts.
