Posted By: Delgado Wed, Sep 27, 2023 IP: 2a01:cb14:aba:700:49

Dear all,

I would like to get a translation of this two seal scripts into regular script and English. So I will higly appreciate whether someody can help me.
Bill. H is very good for identifying marks, but I do not know wheteher he wwill be able to help me for identifying seal script.
I have posted two photo, the first one is how the seal shows scripts and the other one I put it in the other way around, which is the way how script appears, when you stamp it., so it is the right way to read it.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Rodny

正明 Zhengming - as name means: honest, upright, far-sighted etc.
Japanese reading,
正明 Masaaki - as given name or Seimei: honest, upright, far-sighted etc.
Korean reading,
正明 Jeongmyeong - as given name: honest, upright, far-sighted etc.

With regards,

Dear Nagy,
Pleasse find attached photos of the overall, you will see two more scriptsnext to those I have already posted, which are on the same sealSorry I did not post it before because I did not have the photo.There is one scipt that look like the other next to it, but I don' t know whether it is really the same.
First picture is in the way you read it, so I turned it around.
Thank you very much for your help. I highly appreciate it.
Best regards

Perhaps this makes things a little clearer.
In configuration:
正正
文明
In reading:
正明正文 Zhèngmíng zhèngwén Correct text

A kind of proofreading stamp
