Working with rubi text
Rubi text clarifies the meaning or pronunciation of base text. Base text can run
vertically or horizontally, and rubi text usually follows the direction of the base text.
Rubi text can be placed to the right of or to the left of base text in a vertical story, and
above or below base text in a horizontal story.
There are two types of rubi text: mono rubi and group rubi. Mono rubi is rubi text that
is associated with a single character of the base text. Group rubi is rubi text that is
associated with more than one character of the base text.
You can manipulate the alignment, placement, scale, font, color, opacity, shade, type
style, and relative size of rubi text. In addition, you can choose from several options
that allow you to control rubi text that overhangs unrelated base text.
Use the Rubi dialog box (Style menu) to add rubi text to selected base text.
