CJK composition
InCopy supports four methods developed for typesetting, including Adobe Japanese Single-line Composer, Adobe
Japanese Paragraph Composer, Adobe Paragraph Composer, and Adobe Single-line Composer. Each Composer
evaluates possible breaks in CJK and Roman text, and chooses those that best support the hyphenation and
justification options specified for a given paragraph.
The Adobe Paragraph Composer
Considers a network of breakpoints for an entire paragraph, and thus can optimize earlier lines in the paragraph in
order to eliminate especially unattractive breaks later on.
The Paragraph Composer approaches composition by identifying possible breakpoints, evaluating them, and
assigning a weighted penalty to them based on such principles as evenness of letterspacing, word spacing, and
hyphenation, or Roman words set to a language that supports hyphenation dictionaries.
You can use the Hyphenation dialog box to determine the relationship between better spacing and fewer hyphens.
Adobe Japanese Paragraph Composer
Adobe Japanese Paragraph Composer, like the Paragraph Composer, evaluates breaks (where to wrap to the next
line) in units of paragraphs. If characters are added to or deleted from a paragraph specified for this Composer,
mojikumi may be modified on the line before the edit point because the Composer re-evaluates mojikumi in the
whole paragraph in order to optimize it.
The Paragraph Composer approaches composition by identifying possible breakpoints, evaluating them, and
assigning a weighted penalty to them based on such principles as evenness of letterspacing, word spacing, and
hyphenation.
