Rubies and Boutens
All options in the Rubies and Boutens group become available once the East Asian text scripts enhancements option has been turned on from the Edit/Preferences/Editing menu:
Fix Ruby/Bouten positions |
Automatically changes the position of the rubies/boutens currently present in the file. The new positions will be as follows: Above/Right - in horizontal subtitles above the normal text, rubies in vertical subtitles to the right of the normal text; Below/Left - in horizontal subtitles below the normal text, rubies in vertical subtitles to the right of the normal text; Outside - changes the position of the inserted Ruby characters according to the most commonly accepted rules explained earlier in the Ruby Characters topic. |
Single line left positioned |
This option automatically changes ruby or bouten positions in one-line vertical left positioned subtitles to be displayed Left or Right from the base text. The option can be used only if Ruby/Bouten position different from is set to Outside. The common practice is ruby/bouten characters to be displayed on the right side of the text in one-line vertical subtitles. But the distinct exception is the Disney+ requirement to display ruby in one-line aligned to the left vertical subtitles to the left of the base text. So, when the delivery format is going to be Disney+ Japanese IMSC 1.1 we recommend the below configuration: |
Fix Ruby align |
Changes ruby's alignment to the specified position. |
Fix Boutens |
Allows the characters used for emphasis (Bouten) in Japanese scripts to be replaced automatically. |
Remove Rubies |
Removes all ruby characters from the selected range of subtitles. |
Remove Boutens |
Removes bouten/emphasis characters from the selected range of subtitles. |
