Question DTP software for vertical Japanese support |
||
Line 68:
[[QuarkXPress]] was the most popular DTP software in Japan in 1990s, even it had a long development cycle. However, due to lacking support for downward text, it was surpassed by [[Adobe InDesign]] which had strong support for downward text through several updates.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.edit-u.com/conte/dtp04.html|title=DTPって何よ（4） ［編集って何よ］|last=エディット-U|access-date=2019-05-14}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://news.mynavi.jp/article/QuarkXPress_top10-3/|title=アンチQuarkユーザーが気になるQuarkXPress 8の機能トップ10(3) 縦書きの組版が面倒だったけどどうなのよ?|date=2008-07-04|website=MyNavi News|access-date=2019-05-14}}</ref>
At present,{{when|date=March 2019}} handling of downward text is incomplete. For example, [[HTML]] has no support for ''tategaki'' and Japanese users must use HTML tables to simulate it. However, [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] level 3 includes a property "<code>writing-mode</code>" which can render ''tategaki'' when given the value "<code>vertical-rl</code>" (i.e. top to bottom, right to left). Word processors and [[Desktop publishing|DTP]] software{{which|date=August 2025}} have more complete support for it.
