Malayalam took the first installed file mapping it: on macOS Arial Unicode MS, which has no Malayalam shaping, so conjuncts like ക്ഷ fell apart. Fonts made for Malayalam are tried first, loaded on demand through the CJK chain lookup.
InDesign's Hyphenation Zone ("the white space allowed at the end of a
line of unjustified text before hyphenation begins") applies only with the
Single-line Composer. The Paragraph Composer, the default, weighs every
break of the paragraph instead. DesignCraft applied the default 3p0 zone
to both, so ragged paragraphs under the Paragraph Composer refused
hyphens InDesign makes. In LYH Studio's poster tutorial the placeholder
text breaks "aper-natem" and "mosticsia-tur"; ours ran a line longer.
The breaker now gets the zone only for unjustified Single-line Composer
paragraphs.

Text set in Portuguese ("Portuguese: Brazilian", "Portuguese", pt_BR) got
no hyphenation, so justified Portuguese columns could only stretch their
word spaces (up to 335 % of the normal space in a 56 mm column of 10 pt
Times).
Turn on hypher's "portuguese" feature, beside Spanish: hyph-pt.tex 1.4
(2024-07-13) from hyph-utf8, BSD-3-Clause, credited in NOTICE.
Lang::for_language already maps the Portuguese names and locale codes.

Consecutive paragraphs with the same Split Columns settings form a split
block: their text fills the sub-columns of the column one after the
other from the block's top, inset by the outside gutter and separated by
the inside gutter, then moves on to the next column. When text follows
the block, its last part is balanced across the sub-columns and the text
continues below the deepest one at the full column width; a block that
ends the story fills its sub-columns in turn. Keep options don't apply
between a block's lines.
IDML: SplitColumnInsideGutter and SplitColumnOutsideGutter import and
export (paragraph attributes split_inside_gutter, split_outside_gutter).

* Text: a line that exactly fills the measure fits
A line whose natural width overruns its measure by less than 0.01 pt
(rounded frame widths and advances) fits, in the paragraph and the
single-line composer. A one-word line that exactly filled its frame was
hyphenated and lost its last letters.
* Text: a word longer than the line breaks at the column edge
The paragraph composer gets emergency break points inside any word (or
part between hyphenation points) that is wider than the narrowest
measure even fully shrunk. They cost more than a hyphen, so a legal
hyphenation point wins where one fits; justified pieces are rated by the
space they leave, so each line takes as many letters as fit. Tracking is
part of the width.
Justified lines shrink no further than the paragraph's minimum word and
letter spacing and glyph scaling: an overfull line stays overfull
instead of overlapping its glyphs, and an overfull single word shrinks
within the letter and glyph limits.

* Lists: numbering formats from IDML (A, B, C; i, ii, iii; 01, 02 …)
A paragraph's numbering format, number expression, bullet character and
text after the bullet import from IDML and export back. Numbered labels
come from the expression ("^#.^t", "Tabel ^#^t") with its
metacharacters expanded, in place of a fixed "n." label. Adds 001 and
0001 number styles, keeps letter and roman labels short for huge
numbers, and counts saturate instead of overflowing.
* Lists: an empty paragraph gets no bullet or number
A list paragraph with no characters before its return draws no label,
and numbering carries on past it: in a story's own list, in named lists
(also across stories) and in cross-reference paragraph numbers.

* Set warichu as smaller lines inside the parent line.
Type › Warichu stacks the selected run after the line is broken, closes up the rest of the line, and round-trips the IDML warichu properties. The line break itself still sees the full-size run.
* Keep clicks, the caret, and Up/Down on each warichu row.
The glyphs were already stacked inside the parent line, but hit testing, the caret, and vertical movement still used that parent line. Break minimums, row widths, spacing, and tab leaders now follow the small lines, and underlines sit on the small baseline.

A break character is stored as the last character of the paragraph it
ends, followed by the usual '\n' separator. The story model, paragraph
ranges, styles, editing and every exporter keep splitting paragraphs on
'\n' only, so the change stays in the places that create, lay out or
write break characters:
- IDML import writes the break and ends the paragraph, so the range that
follows keeps its own paragraph style. NextOddPage and NextEvenPage map
to new odd and even page break characters; IDML export writes a
paragraph that ends in a break as that one Br with its
ParagraphBreakType, so export and re-import give the same story.
- Word and RTF import, Type > Insert Break Character (with odd and even
page breaks added) and typing end the paragraph after a break. Typing
between a break and its return goes to the next paragraph; deleting
either deletes both.
- Layout: a break that ends a paragraph leaves no empty line; the next
paragraph starts in the next column, frame or page, as a paragraph start
option would. Page breaks and Next Page start options move to the next
frame on a later page; odd and even ones to the next page with that
page number parity (no such frame: overset). A break inside a paragraph
from an older document still moves the rest of that paragraph on.
Storing the break as a paragraph separator of its own would have changed
every place that counts or splits paragraphs on '\n'.

* Footnotes: the first line wraps at the column edge after the number
Line breaking gave tabs no width: a tab only reached its stop when the
line was laid out, so a line holding a tab ran past the measure by the
tab's advance. A footnote whose separator is a tab overflowed its first
line by the gap between the number and the tab stop, and body lines
with tabs did the same.
The greedy breaker now asks for each tab's advance at its position on
the line, computed by the same tab_advance helper line layout uses.
* Lists: the first line after a bullet or number wraps at the column edge
In a hanging indent (a negative first-line indent), the tab after a
bullet or number went to the next default tab stop, past the left
indent: the first line's text started late and pushed the line past the
column edge.
The left indent is now a left tab stop of its own. A tab before it
reaches it unless an explicit stop comes first, so the first line's
text lines up with the lines below.

* Text frames: column rules draw between columns on screen and in PDF
A frame with Column Rule on gets a bar centred in each gutter, inside the
insets, broken around paragraphs that span columns; right-to-left and
vertical frames included. object.textFrameOptions takes columnRuleWeight
and columnRuleColor (unknown swatches are an error) and an inset array
whose null sides stay; document.inspect reports the rule.
* Text Frame Options: Column Rules fields; OK changes only edited fields
The dialog shows the selected frame's options, with an inset field per
side, and sends only what the user changed, so unequal insets survive.
The rule weight is read in points.
* Column rules: tint, horizontal offset and top/bottom insets; IDML import and export
Text Frame Options gains Tint %, Top Inset, Bottom Inset and Horizontal
Offset for the rule, and object.textFrameOptions and document.inspect
take and report them. IDML reads the ColumnRule attributes of
TextFramePreference on frames and object styles and writes them when a
rule is set.

Text set in Spanish was not hyphenated at all. It now uses Javier
Bezos's Liang patterns, hyph-es.tex 5.0 from hyph-utf8 under MIT,
through the hypher crate 0.1.8 with only its alloc and spanish
features. The full feature, which embeds 48 languages under several
licences, stays off.
- hyphen::Lang names the hyphenator for a run: English, or a hypher
language. Lang::for_language maps a language name or locale code.
- word_breaks_in and hyphen_points_in take the language. word_breaks
and hyphen_points stay as the English entry points.
- Composition hyphenates a non-English run whose language has
patterns and skips the rest. The word cache key includes the
language.
- NOTICE carries the Bezos copyright line and the MIT text.

A line ended by a column, frame or page break takes the paragraph's
last-line alignment, so a Left Justify paragraph sets it flush left.
A line ended by a forced line break stays justified.
The break that moves the following text to the next column or frame
is the line's last glyph, so a space after the break no longer keeps
the text in the same column.
A spanning paragraph closes the band of columns above it. Those columns
are balanced first and the paragraph sits below the deepest of them; the
columns after it start below the paragraph, so text that moves to the
next column no longer restarts at the frame top over the heading. A
spanning paragraph that doesn't fit moves to the next frame. Span counts
below the column count set the paragraph across the first columns only.
IDML names some languages by locale code
(AppliedLanguage="$ID/de_DE_2006", "$ID/nl_NL_2005") beside names such
as "English: USA" and "Spanish: Castilian". language_tag maps any locale
code (ll, ll_CC, ll-CC, with a reform year after them) to its BCP 47 tag
(de-DE, nl-NL; kept once per process, at most 512 distinct tags), ignores
IDML's $ID/ prefix, and knows Spanish: Castilian (es-ES) and Swiss French
and Italian. The stored name stays as written, so IDML round trips are
unchanged.
What depends on the language now goes by the tag: typographer's quotes
(by language subtag; Swiss regions take guillemets), English
hyphenation and spelling (is_english), Korean word breaking and the CJK
fallback chains (ja-JP, ko-KR are Japanese and Korean whatever the
region).
A character the applied font lacks is drawn as that font's missing-glyph
box (its .notdef, gid 0), on screen and in PDF, and Preflight lists the
characters by font ("Missing glyphs in <family> <style>: …", an error,
at most 20 named). A .notdef without an outline is drawn as a hollow box
across its advance, so a missing character never disappears. PDF draws
.notdef glyphs as paths, which PDF/A and PDF/UA accept. Kenten marks are
set in their text's font the same way.
The document setting Draw Missing Glyphs from Fallback Fonts
(DocSettings::glyph_fallback; Preferences > Composition,
document.preferences {glyphFallback}, undoable) draws them from fallback
fonts instead (the language-aware chains, then any font; kenten marks
from a fallback font, else a bullet). It is off in new documents and
IDML imports and on in files saved before it existed, which keep
drawing as they did. A missing font's substitute always uses fallback
fonts. The composition cache's signature includes the setting. Tests
whose Arabic comes from a fallback font turn the setting on.
The fonts in a document's Document Fonts folder are registered under a
font scope that the document holds while it is open (Document::font_scope,
runtime only; DocState keeps the scope alive and closes it when the last
copy of the state goes: file.close, closing a tab, revert, a book
chapter's export, the session ending). Composition, preflight, font.list,
Package and the font menus, Glyphs panel and previews look fonts up
through FontDb::scoped(scope): the document's own faces first, then the
shared ones. Other open documents don't see them, and two documents with
fonts of the same name each set text in their own. Composite fonts'
member fonts and the fallback for kenten marks are looked up the same
way.
Font files stay in memory for the session (FaceRef keeps faces for the
process); a document opened again reuses the faces of its unchanged files
(same path, length and modification time) instead of reading them again.
The composition cache's signature includes the scope; the word cache and
the outline and PDF font caches are keyed by face. Variable font
instances are kept per base face.
A family's installed faces join the shared fonts all at once, and a
face two lookups load at the same time is kept once, so a parallel
fallback lookup never takes a family's bold before its regular has
loaded.
Vertical is a story property: every frame of a thread is vertical or
horizontal together, a frame threaded onto a story takes its direction,
and frames split off by threading or breaking a thread keep theirs.
Type > Story Direction is type.storyDirection {vertical} (checked in the
menu) for the stories of the text selection or selected frames;
object.textFrameOptions {vertical} and frame.create {vertical} set the
frames' stories. Documents that stored Vertical on the frame open with
each story taking its first frame's direction. IDML StoryOrientation is
read into and written from the story, beside its column direction
(StoryDirection), which stays a separate setting.
In vertical frames upright runs are shaped TopToBottom (vert; vkrn/vpal
when asked), advance by their vertical metrics and hang from their
vertical origins on the em box centre, on screen and in PDF; their line
ascent and descent are the em box. Turned runs stay horizontal without
vrt2 (rather than every run taking vert and vrt2), and tate-chu-yoko
stays horizontal and centres on the em box, its offsets moving it along
and across the line. Horizontal Kana in upright runs takes vkna. Each
run is shaped with the text around it, as horizontal runs are.
Korean is set word by word (KLREQ): Hangul, in any language, and Han
ideographs in Korean-language text take no line breaks between
characters, so lines break at spaces. Glyphs carry their language tag
for this. A paragraph attribute, koreanCharBreaks (type.para, paragraph
styles, Paragraph Style Options > Justification), breaks between
syllables instead. It is DesignCraft-only; IDML doesn't carry it.
A paragraph's kinsoku set decides which breaks it forbids, and Korean
still breaks at spaces under one.
Kinsoku still holds, also when the single-line composer has to split a
word wider than the measure: the split moves back so no line starts
with closing punctuation.
Characters the primary font lacks try a fallback chain by language
before the language-blind search: Japanese (the craft-fonts Japanese
faces first, Mincho first), Simplified Chinese (also plain Chinese),
Traditional Chinese and Korean each list their macOS, Windows and Linux
system families. Hangul, kana and Bopomofo pick their language's chain
whatever the character language; ideographs and CJK punctuation follow
it, and keep today's fallback without a CJK language. Chain families
load from the system font catalog the first time they are needed.
designcraft_fonts::testing (feature `testing`) builds synthetic fonts
with a given family name and coverage for tests.
The character's language (as IDML names it) maps to a BCP 47 tag
(designcraft_doc::language_tag) and is the shaping context's language
on the harfrust buffer, so OpenType locl applies for every language in
the list (Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Turkish, ...), not only Arabic,
Persian, Urdu, Hebrew and English: other names used to reach the
shaper as they were written, which it doesn't know, so their locl never
applied. designcraft_fonts no longer maps names itself. The word-shaping
cache is keyed by the tag. Chinese: Simplified and Chinese: Traditional
join the language list (plain Chinese stays, tagged zh); Simplified
Chinese takes curly quotes, Traditional Chinese corner brackets.
Port the CJK1 and AR1 changes from 3ecdb78 and de83cdc onto current main. Resolve translation and font-stack conflicts by retaining main localization and craft-fonts integration while preserving all typesetting code, tests, and documentation.
Validation: all six CI gates passed, including 616 tests and WASM checks.
- doc: FOOTNOTE_REF marker + Story::notes (kept in sync on insert/delete/thread), FootnoteOptions,
NumberStyle::Symbols, footnote text addressed like cell text (CellAddr::footnote)
- compose: notes numbered (continuous / restart per page, spread, section), composed at column
width, body text makes room, stacked at the column bottom with the rule above
- render + PDF draw footnote text; IDML export/import in InDesign's structure (verified in
InDesign 2026), FootnoteOption preferences
- engine: footnote.insert/options/list/setText/delete/goToReference (+ tests)
- UI: caret/selection in footnote text, Footnote Options dialog, Type menu entries; menu items
labelled '…' with parameters open a dialog generated from the command's params doc
- sample magazine carries a footnote
