Text alignment, text orientation
Posted December 2nd, 2007 by Ethelbert
Good day,
I'm a new user of Jsesh (3 days ago ^^), and I tested it in order to type a lesson of middle egyptian. First of all, I want to congratulate the developpers for this software. It works very well, and is easy to use.
However, I have a question concerning the text alignment when exporting the document in another format. I tried to export my lesson in pdf, but the text was all left-aligned and it was here and there not very good to see.
Would it be possible to make an option in order to have a justified text-alignment ?
For the moment, I type the hieroglyphic text using Jsesh, and then export it in rtf in OpenOffice. That's good enough for my middle egyptian lessons are quite short.
Anyway, congratulations to you and keep on going.
PS: sorry for my english, it's been a long time since I didn't practice it.

Justifier un texte
Bonjour,
Je suis un doctorant en égyptologie travaillant actuellement sur un projet à Berlin. J'utilise votre programme pour retranscrire les hiéroglyphes d'un sarcophage. J'ai une question concernant l'alignement du texte hiéroglyphique sur JSesh. Est-il possible, tout comme dans Word par exemple, de justifier un texte hiéroglyphique en ligne ou en colonne?
J'imagine que cela est possible, mais je ne trouve pas la solution. Pouvez-vous me l'indiquer?
Puis félicitations pour ce programme, cela m'aide beaucoup pour mon travail!
sincères salutations,
Jérémie Florès

Thanks for the kind comment.
Alas, text justification is still in the to-do list, so, currently, it's not available. Currently, you can play a bit with Manuel de codage tabbing
(see the example text), or export your text to SVG, and perform the alignment in Inkscape or illustrator.

An improvement of the layout
An improvement of the layout of JSesh's output in PDF is among my top priorities. The "hieroglyphic palette" was first, but as I want JSesh to become more professional and suited for publishing, I'll work on it very soon. Meanwhile, the SVG output can also be of some help for large parts of texts.
