The application supports internationalization (I18N). There are multiple components to editing and previewing internationalized text documents. These include:
- Fonts
- Language
Both fonts and language must be set for non-Latin-based text.
The text editors and preview panel have independent font settings. For all Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) fonts, you may have to type in the font family name directly.
For example, CJK font families for the editor have the following names:
- Noto Sans CJK KR --- Korean font
- Noto Sans CJK JP --- Japanese font
- Noto Sans CJK HN --- Chinese font
- Noto Sans CJK SC --- Simplified Chinese font
While CJK font familes for the preview have the following names:
- Noto Serif CJK KR --- Korean font
- Noto Serif CJK JP --- Japanese font
- Noto Serif CJK HN --- Chinese font
- Noto Serif CJK SC --- Simplified Chinese font
