使用 OpenType 實現注音符號在數位環境的排版顯示 Implement Bopomofo Layout with OpenType feature
DebConf18

這是一場國際化主題的演講,主要說明如何讓注音符號排版在Web以及資訊系統上呈現。在這五年的時間中,注音符號從W3C規範上的一項註釋開始,完成了HTML5的標註方法、確立了CSS標準並且受到瀏覽器實作。最終遇到了調號位置的問題,最近終於透過OpenType字體的功能而完成了最後一步。本演講主要說明這段時間的進程與標準化進度,以及所遇到的問題與經驗分享。 This speech is about i18n. Bopomofo (Zhuyin Fuhao) is a phonetic system for Mandarin only used in Taiwan. It's layout is complex for web and information systems. In past five years, I participated W3C standardization activities to bring this issue from an annotation on W3C spec to finalize HTML ruby markup and push CSS spec to be implied by browsers. Tone mark position is the last step and we tried OpenType font feature as solution. I'll describe the process for standardization and problems and experience.
