Description
Fully customizable Japanese license plate keychains. (No AMS needed)
I created this keychain so everyone can customize it themselves. You only need to change the text and, if you want, the color in your slicer.
The plate designs are inspired by the look of the original ones found in Japan.
The illustration shows what a plate might look like. The top line contains the name of the issuing office (Tama, shown, is in Tokyo) and a vehicle class code. The bottom line contains a hiragana character and a four-digit serial number divided into two groups of two digits separated by a hyphen. Any leading zeroes are replaced by centered dots.
White plates can have the following hiragana (bold indicates rental vehicle characters):
さすせそたちつてとなにぬねのはひふほまみむめもやゆよらりるろれわ
Green plates can have the following hiragana:
あいうえかきくけこを
Some characters, including ones with a dakuten or a handakuten, cannot be used on any plates, including the yellow and black ones:
おばだがぱざびぢぎぴしじぶづぐぷずへべでげペぜぼどごぽぞゑゐん

You will need the following fonts installed on your PC to make them look correct:

I have also added them here as a documentation file for download.
