PaoloT Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 It would be great if these algorithms were part of APub, and could automatically fix Chinese punctuation while waiting for a more complete implementation! Paolo loyukfai 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaoloT Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 One year a half after, may I ask if support for Chinese (as well as Japanese) has been improved? Are the punctuation issues been resolved? Paolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashf Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 For those who need East Asian typography, Viva Designer might be the solution for now. It supports vertical writing mode and some East Asian specific features.https://www.viva.us/ They have onetime payment option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from East Asian language support, how does it compare to Affinity Publisher? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Viva is a traditional page layout app like Quark/InDesign used to be. You could archive similar result by using Viva with a vector graphic app such as AD. But if the typography is the most important and essential to the artwork, AP wouldn't be an option like in Japan. Means AP has practically no value in the publishing industry. You can try it with the free version. (yes they have a FREE version.) Free version does not have pdf export option, but it's enough for personal use. And the premium version is of course much better than Indesign/Quark in terms of cost. loyukfai 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
