Applying emphasis
To apply an emphasis mark to a character, select the character, click the Emphasis Mark
button in the Measurements palette to display the emphasis mark options, and then click
one of the options. These options are also available in the Emphasis Mark drop-down
menu in the Character Attributes palette (Style > Character).
Controlling half-width characters
To keep half-width characters (such as Roman characters) horizontal in a vertical story,
check the Keep Half-Width Characters Upright box in the Character Attributes dialog
box (Style menu).
Counting characters
The Character Count dialog box (Utilities menu) displays the number of full-width,
half-width, Bopomofo, Hangul, Kana, and Han characters used in the active story. It also
displays the number of symbols and private use characters in the selected story.
Working with font sets
Font sets let you control how different types of characters — such as Alphabetic (Roman)
and Han characters — display when they occur together in text.
You can create a new font set in the Edit Font Set dialog box (Edit > Font Sets > New).
Each font set is composed of a set of font types, each of which has its own settings.
Use the Edit Font Set dialog box to configure a font set.
For each type in a font set, you can control the following:
• Font: Specify a font for each type of character group.
• Relative Size: Specify the relative size of each font based on the font size used in the layout.
For example, if the font size in your layout is 12 points, and you specify a relative setting
of 200%, the font displays at 24 points.
