Working with Asian glyphs
The Glyphs palette provides additional settings when Illustrator is set to display Asian type options. You can replace selected characters with a variety of glyph forms and revert alternate glyphs to their default forms.
To replace characters with a different glyph form: - Select the characters you want to replace.
- Choose an option from the Glyphs palette menu. If an option is dimmed, the glyph form is not available for the current font:
- Traditional Forms to replace the selected characters with traditional forms.
- Expert Forms to replace the selected characters with their expert forms.
- JIS 78 Forms to replace the selected characters with JIS 78 forms.
- JIS 83 Forms to replace the selected characters with JIS 83 forms.
- Monospaced Half-Width Forms to change the glyphs of the selected Latin characters to monospaced hankaku (half width).
- Monospaced Third-Width Forms to change the glyphs of the selected Latin characters to monospaced half width.
- Monospaced Quarter-Width Forms to change the glyphs of the selected Latin characters to monospaced quarter width.
To revert an alternate glyph to its default form: - Select the glyph you want to revert.
- Choose Revert to Default Forms from the Glyphs palette menu.
Note: You cannot use this method to revert alternate glyphs that were applied using a character style.
