Asian Typography is a set of options for text paragraphs in documents written in Asian languages.

Aspose.Words supports Asian Typography using the ParagraphFormat class and some of its properties.

Automatically Adjust Space between Asian and Latin Text or Numbers

If you are designing a template with both East Asian and Latin text and want to enhance the appearance of your form template by controlling the spaces between both types of text, you can configure your form template to automatically adjust the spaces between these two types of text. To achieve this, you can use add_space_between_far_east_and_alpha and add_space_between_far_east_and_digit properties of the ParagraphFormat class.

The following code example shows how to use add_space_between_far_east_and_alpha and add_space_between_far_east_and_digit properties:

Set Line Break Options

The Asian Typography tab of the paragraph properties dialog box in Microsoft Word has line break group. The options of this group can be set using the far_east_line_break_control, word_wrap, hanging_punctuation properties of the ParagraphFormat class.

The following code example shows how to use these properties:
