If you write from top to bottom, and then left to right, you buy a typewriter that does this also. tblr ?
If you write from left to right and then from top to bottom, you buy a typewriter that does this also. lrtb ?
A typewriter/computer/printer that can easily produce either format (and has
the needed keyboards of characters available)
would be useful in places like embassies that need to produce documents in multiple languages. Printing in both formats on the same page would also be useful.
A single machine on a single desk, rather than two machines and two desks.
It would be nice, if translation was also available.

I'm not entirely seeing this idea as solving a 21st

used,
and computer printers can print your text
vertically,
horizontally, or in any other form of ally. |

Computers, I note, are also nowadays capable of
presenting text in any orientation. |
