Back in a thread from 2015 (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742297 ), behdad provided 2 commands to display vertical CJK text:

For example, in the pango/pango-view directory try:

$ pango-view --gravity auto --rotate -90 test-mixed.markup --markup --font 32

and to force all scripts (Latin, Arabic, all) to be upright, like the original request:

$ pango-view --gravity auto --rotate -90 test-mixed.markup --markup --font 32 --gravity-hint strong

It worked great at that time, but now when I try it, the CJK text collapses, just like this:

(text from https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/blob/master/pango-view/test-chinese.txt )

Seems something about East-asian style vertical text display broke during these days, don't know it just has something to do with pango-view, or it's the base pango lib that went wrong?

Please fix that, and thanks in advance :)
