Happy to get progress in W3C TPAC Kobe. “Emphasis dots” will broaden line-height in both Traditional /Simplified Chinese, but not happened to Japanese. It is going to be fixed in the future.

@jensimmons.bsky.social Hello Jen, I have a question about CSS syntax text-decoration-thickness and text-underline-offset on Safari.

I use them to design highlight text on ebook. It used to present as above(Google Chrome), but a thin line in recent version.

Is it a bug on webkit?

Google chrome may follow Safari’s step to limit local font usage for privacy concern.

Please consider to support generic family like Kai, Fangsong in incoming level4 for Chinese Typography on web and ebooks.

‘text-autospace: normal’ is needed by CJK typography for such long time.
The release notes for Safari Technology Preview 210 are available covering updates to CSS, DOM, JavaScript, Rendering, Web Animations, Web API, Web Extensions, and Web Inspector.

`margin-block: 1lh;` is such a better default for paragraphs of text than `margin-block: 1em;`

I highly recommend it.

10 years ago, I made a crowd sourcing campaign to attend W3C workshop for Bopomofo requirement. I’ve made a sample textbook page for funding.

Now everything, ruby markup, CSS ruby and font, is done.

Thank you so much for supporting “ruby-position: inter-character”. It completes Bopomofo layout. Very useful for Chinese editorsucation.

Really appreciated.

想想這十幾年做的電子書多有知名作品與作家,像是飢餓遊戲、龍紋身的少女,金庸全集,以至於最近的龍應台、卡爾維諾、大江健三郎、村上春樹。也沾了不少光,於有榮焉。

十年前做了這套《葉嘉瑩作品集》EPUB 3、直排,宋體楷體對應,有印刷書頁碼,包含影音注釋。直到現在Apple Books還是表現最好的平台。

支持李琴峰,我可以把身份、作品,囂張與否放到一邊。

因為我也曾經遇過職場霸凌,那一群人就算你離了職也會窮追猛打,這種執著與造成的恐懼,本身就必須被中斷。

感覺Facebook為了鼓勵人們提供內容給他們的AI學習,如果你的圖文並非原創,而為AI生成,那就會被降低評價並且減少觸及。
