Preferences for two-byte text entry
The options for the Inline preferences let you specify whether you want to always enter two-byte text
directly into a document, or use a text-entry window when the apparent type size is outside a range
that you have set. This feature is available only when you are running system software that supports
two-byte fonts, and are using two-byte fonts to enter text into a document. This preference does not
affect printing.
Using a low zoom level can make it difficult to see text as you type. By using the text-entry window,
you can see and edit text in the window, regardless of the current view magnification level.
To set inline text-entry preferences:
1. Choose File | Configuration Center.
2. In the Configuration Center, open the Inline manager within Text settings.
You must first enable two-byte script in the Type manager.
3. Specify the following options, and then click OK to implement the current settings:
If you always want to use a text-entry window, regardless of the size of the type, select
the Never option.
If you want a text entry window to appear when you type text at some apparent type
sizes, select the “For text from” option. Type a number from 6 and 255 in each text box.
These numbers set the range in which the text-entry window does not appear and you
type directly into a document.
A character’s apparent size is the size at which it appears on screen, based on the current view
magnification level; e.g., 12 point type appears to be 12 points at 100%; at 200%, it appears to be
24 points; at 50%, it appears to be the size of 6 point type.
Using the text-entry window
If you choose the “For text from” option and type text in a document at an apparent point size that is
outside the specified range, the text-entry window appears at the bottom of the screen. You can type
and edit text directly in the window. To enter the text into the current document, press Enter.
If the apparent size of text changes because you change the view magnification, actual point sizes
that are beyond the specified “For text from” range might not cause the text-entry window to open. In
this case, you can type the text directly into the document.
