Text Layout Framework Description

Extensible Flash library which provides new typographic and text layout features for Adobe Flash Player or AIR Text Layout Framework is an extensible library, built on the new text engine in Adobe Flash Player 10, which delivers advanced, easy-to-integrate typographic and text layout features for rich, sophisticated and innovative typography on the web. The framework is designed to be used with Adobe Flash CS4 Professional or Adobe Flex, and is already included in the next version of Flex, code named Gumbo. Developers can use or extend existing components, or use the framework to create their own text components.Text Layout Framework enables support for complex scripts, bidirectional text, vertical layout, multi-column layout, inline images, and many other text layout and advanced typographical features.The Text Layout Framework is a library built on top of the new text engine in Flash Player 10 and AIR 1.5. This framework provides support for high quality, typographically rich, flowable text layout with selection, editing, undo, copy-paste, and an XML markup language to dynamically style text. The Text Layout Framework is written in ActionScript 3.0 and does not have a specific dependency on Flex, Flash CS4 Professional, or any other framework.The Text Layout Framework is for developers who work in Flash, Flex Builder, or other IDEs that support ActionScript. It contains the .swc files that implement the framework and code examples for building custom components.The Text Layout Flash Component is a proof-of-concept component designed to be used with Flash CS4 Professional, but is not part of the Flash CS4 Professional release. This component is built using the Text Layout Framework. The MXP also provides a Text Layout panel UI which can be used to visually layout text and access advanced typographic features. We created this UI to test the Text Layout Framework, and it is not in final form. The UI is not intended to indicate any eventual UI within Flash CS4 Professional or future releases.Together with the new text engine in Flash Player 10 and AIR 1.5, the Text Layout Framework delivers multi-lingual, print-quality typography for the web, including support for:· Bidirectional text, vertical text and over 30 writing systems including Latin (English, Spanish, French, German, Vietnamese etc.), Greek, Cyrillic, Armenian, Georgian, Ethiopic, Tifinagh, Yi, Cherokee, Canadian Syllabics, Deseret, Shavian, Vai, Tagalog, Hanunoo, Buhid, Tagbanwa, Hebrew, Arabic, Thai, Lao, Khmer, Han ideographs and Kana (Chinese, Japanese, Korean), Hangul Johab (Korean), Devanagari, Bengali, Gurmukhi, Gujarati, Oriya, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Thaana, and Tibetan.· Selection, editing and flowing text across multiple columns and linked containers, and around inline images· Vertical text, Tate-Chu-Yoko (horizontal within vertical text) and justifier for East Asian typography· Rich typographical controls, including kerning, ligatures, typographic case, digit case, digit width and discretionary hyphens· Cut, copy, paste, undo and standard keyboard and mouse gestures for editing· Rich developer APIs to manipulate text content, layout, markup and create custom text components.
