PSE has 12 Kanji graphic characters you can insert into a document/file. Unfortunately,when you select one of them, the "name" of each of the character is just "Character 1, Character 2, etc."  This is not helpful if you choose to use them.  I'd like to know what the meaning of each of the 12 Kanji characters;  for example, peace, harmony, water or whatever.

Thanks

I don't think it's unrealistic to have Photoshop Element Product Dev be able to correct the basic problem; which is these characters are not useable in any file, photo, or illustration since there is no corresponding English meaning.  That means you could insert a character with a totally different meaning into a composistion and have it be other than what you expected.

I would not relly on Google nor on Ps when using foreign characters/languages.

I would contact someone who would understand kanji.

Unfortunately, Google Translate doesn't work. I just get a blank page.  And trying to go through the "kanji" alphabet is neither productive or effective.

Thanks
