Display Asian type options
Photoshop Elements provides several options for working with Asian type. Asian fonts are often referred to as double-byte fonts or CJK fonts, meaning Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts.
-
-
Set text options:
Show Asian Text Options to display Asian type options.
Show Font Names in English to display Asian font names in English.
-
Click OK. The Asian type options button
is added
to the type tool options bar.
Reduce spacing between Asian characters
Tsume reduces the space around a character (but not the character itself) by a specified percentage value. When tsume is added to a character, spacing around both sides of the character is reduced by an equal percentage.
-
If you’re working with an existing layer, select the text layer in the Layers panel and then select a type tool.
-
Select the characters you want to adjust.
-
Click the Show Asian Text Options button in the
options bar. If you don’t see the button, make sure that preferences
are set to show Asian type options.
-
Select a percentage for Tsume from the pop‑up menu, and press the Enter or Return key. The greater the percentage, the tighter the compression between characters. At 100% (the maximum value), there is no space between the character’s bounding box and its em box.Note:
An em box is a space whose height and width roughly correspond to the width of the letter “M” (also called a mutton).
Turn on or turn off tate‑chuu‑yoko
Tate‑chuu‑yoko (also called kumimoji and renmoji) is a block of horizontal type laid out within a vertical type line.
-
If you’re working with an existing layer, select the text layer in the Layers panel and then select a type tool.
-
Select the characters that you want to rotate.
-
Click the Asian Text Options button in the
options bar.
-
Enable Tate‑Chuu‑Yoko.
Turn on or turn off mojikumi
Mojikumi determines spacing between punctuation, symbols, numbers, and other character classes in Japanese type. When mojikumi is on, half-width spacing is applied to these characters.
-
If you’re working with an existing layer, select the text layer in the Layers panel and then select a type tool.
-
Click the Asian Text Options button in the
options bar.
-
Enable Mojikumi.
