Default setting with Japanese UI


Recommended Posts

This is more like a bug fix request rather than a feature request since the problems related to this are very annoying.
I would like you to change the default setting for Japanese UI.

- Default font for text should be Hiragino Gothic(Mac) or Yu Gothic(Windows)
- The Check Spelling should be off by default.
- The Missing Glyphs / the Spelling in the Preflight should be disabled by default.
- Default Typography Script for text should be CJK.
- Default Space After Paragraph should be 0.
- Default Kerning should be 0.
- Standard Ligatures should be off by default.
- Default Leading should be 18pt or fixed value.

Otherwise Japanese text will be messed up or people will see annoying errors.

Please refer to this article also for the default setting of text.

I apologize for hijacking your thread, but I can't find an official answer to this. Does Publisher correctly support Japanese? I wonder if it is ready for this language.

Short answer is yes. it's ok for the horizontal writing format like in Europe.
But there are many small problems. I can avoid them with my knowledge and extra tasks though.

The most critical problem is absence of the vertical writing.
In Japan, almost 100% of magazines and newspapers are published in the vertical writing format.
So Publisher is basically useless as an app for commercial printing.
