Formatting Asian characters

Illustrator provides a variety of options for formatting Asian characters. For example, you can set Asian Open Type

font attributes, use tate-chu-yoko, aki, warichu, mojisoroe, mojikumi, kinsoku, burasagari, and kurikaeshi moji shori.

In addition, you can combine Asian and roman fonts and create composite fonts.

Note: To enable support for GB18030 fonts for Simplified Chinese in Windows XP, see the Readme file in the Illustrator

CS5\Simplified Chinese\Goodies\Optional Extensions\GB18030 folder.

menu.

You can also control how font names are displayed (in English or in the native language) by selecting or deselecting
