Adjusting tsume
Tsume reduces the space around a character by a specified percentage value. The character itself is not stretched or squeezed, rather the space around the character is compressed. When tsume is added to a character, spacing around both sides of the character is reduced by an equal percentage.
To reduce spacing between characters:
- Select the characters you want to adjust.
- Enter or select a percentage for Tsume in the Properties palette, and click OK.
The greater the percentage, the less space between characters. At 100% (the maximum value), there is no space between the character's bounding box and its em box. (An em box is a space whose height and width roughly correspond to the width of the letter "M," also called a mutton.)
