Direction

Output order

Sequential only. Pads short rows (e.g. ya/yu/yo, wa/wo/n) with empty cells so every row lines up in a 5-wide table; forces columns to 5.

If unchecked and grid exceeds pool size, extra spaces stay empty.

This is a sample of which kana your current settings would select, and how many fit per page, so you can check the mix before printing — it is not a mockup of the page design. The actual PDF has no colors or rounded corners: every box is a plain black square on white paper.
