Requirements 2009

Background

Good-Day, Inc located in Osaka/Japan is a company that develop and support Open Source Software. We are contributing to OpenOffice.org since 2002. At the moment, we are concentrating to OpenOffice.org in QA and Localize. One of the big company have researched furniture of OpenOffice.org since 2008 and the Japan OSS Promotion Forum started to joint trial use OpenOffice.org from 3.1.1 which we provide. The trial has some companies that represents Japan. please see the detail on website. </nowiki> According to result of research , trial use and Seagull Research 2006, We found some big baggage to use / migrate for enterprise user. We picked up 7 topic which </nowiki>are basic furniture and high priority issue for Japanese user in this year. We would like to find out solution and solve it with OpenOffice.org Community.

Detail of each Application

Writer

Topic 1 : Grid layout for Japanese

Topic 3 : Japanese Justification and Distribution

Principles of Arrangement for Japanese

Japanese user basically use spacing furniture for title of document and title of table..etc According to Japanese Industrial Standards,There are three type of spacing. It call "Fixed inter-character spacing","Even inter-character spacing" and "Tsumegumi".

Office software should be able to use it.

a.Fixed inter-character spacing: 
Text set with a fixed size space between each character frame (see [Fig.6]).
b. Even inter-character spacing:
Text set with equal inter-character spacing between characters on a given line,
so that each line is aligned to the same line head and line end (see [Fig.7]).

Even inter-character space setting is used in books for unifying the length of table headings with Japanese text (see [Fig.8]). 
There are also examples (e.g. lists of names) in which parts of a person names receive inter-character spacing. 
c.Tsumegumi (kerning / tracking): Text is set with negative inter-character space by arranging characters 
so that a portion of two character frames overlap each other. This is divided further into two types,
depending on the methods used for inter-character space reduction. One method involves reducing by the
same amount of inter-character space (even tsumegumi or tracking, see [Fig.9]) and the other involves
determining the amount of space to reduce based on the distance between the two letter faces of adjacent 
characters (face tsumegumi or letter face kerning, see [Fig.10]).

Japanese Justification

Justification is basically furniture. Japanese Justification is unique. please see some blow Reference.


Situation of Distribution on Writer

OpenOffice.org Writer is supported enough furniture for make spacing except Text box. But it is not easy to use.

  • a. Fixed inter-character spacing
  • b. Even inter-character spacing
  • c. Tsumegumi (kerning / tracking)

Writer can do all of them by blow ways.

  1. Set Spacing size by point in Character Dialog->Position/Spacing for all.
  2. Select justified in Paragraph dialog->Alignment->Option:Justified/Last line:Justified for "b"
  3. limited case,Double line layout(Character -> Asian Layout) for "b".
  4. Type and Put the full and half space manually for "a" and "b"

However, There are hard to use "1" for "b" and "c". because user have to mind font size ,calculate themselves and set . of cause, they have to recalculate again if change font size.

also difficult to find "2" furniture.

for example

I made a sample paper.This is common business layout for Japanese.

Japanese text layout sample20091125.png

1)Title:
It have "a. Fixed inter-character spacing" in here.

  • Set Font-Size by point in Character Dialog->Position/Spacing.

2)Affiliation:
It have "b.Even inter-character spacing".

  • select Double line layout(Character -> Asian Layout) then put a two full-space between "指定社員" and "執行役員社員".

3)Name:
It have "b.Even inter-character spacing" and sometimes this place need "c. Tsumegumi (kerning / tracking)" if the name is long.

  • Calculate and Set Font-Size by point in Character Dialog->Position/Spacing each line.

4)stamp place:
this is not about spacing.

Other sample

Case of Microsoft Word

Microsoft Office have a two furniture for solver.

  • Fit Text for all
  1. Select some character.
  2. Push the Distributed icon on the tool bar.
  3. Open the "Fit text property dialog"
  4. Set the width by number of characters.
MS Word Fit text.png
(Fit text property dialog)
If they do not have enough space in the font,
They change the font size by scale width furniture.
  • c) Distributed Paragraph for "b" ( it is same way as Select justified in Paragraph dialog->Alignment->Option:Justified/Last line:Justified for "b" in OpenOffice.org)
  1. High light the Line
  2. Push the Distributed icon on the tool bar.


Topic 2 : Table border


Situation of Table on Writer

We usually use Diagonal line on the table and dot line. It mean of diagonal that is same as N/A and also use head of the table.

Sample writer table1.png

  • currently version of openoffice.org writer can not use Diagonal so we have to draw by my self.
  • currently version of openoffice.org writer can not use dot line so we are deception by gray line.

Topic 6 : Issue about Asian Kerning

  • i13624  : Incorrect proportional char spacing, with Kana compressed
  • i107162 : Lap over the character if use proportional font and enable the compressed option
  • i107161 : Area over the character if enable the compressed option

Other : MS-Word file filter

Calc
