It is traditionally written in vertical lines Top-Down, right across the page, although the Unicode code charts cite the characters rotated to horizontal orientation as this is the orientation of glyphs in a font that supports layout in vertical orientation.
There is an English interface for Menksoft Mongolian IME; however, Menksoft did not build an English installation program.
