Floating punctuation (hanging punctuation)

roger64 · 03-04-2020, 04:51 AM

Hi

I've seen on forum files that Koreader can display this feature (one nice example given by Frenzie is an english text from wikipedia) or has it been disabled?

If it still alive, I'd like to know how to enable it. I tried using css (hanging punctuation) to no avail, there should be a setting somewhere I presume?

It's over in the document menu. Not sure which nice example you're talking about though?

Thanks! It was a Wikipedia article published in 2018 (left without, right with) which illustrated it but I lost the thread.

In French, it's written "Ponctuation sans justification" which is quite clear indeed...

And btw,

- I just found how to get pop-up notes with a standard ePub
- I just found that dropcaps are displayed nicely (with "web" mode rendering only!) but "hanging punctuation" does not like them, so for this tiny use case, a choice has to be made.

Amazing Koreader !!!

Oh, I figure I referred to the Wikipedia article about hanging punctuation. It links to this PDF which has some good examples (but they're probably better than what KOReader can do

).
