Specify hanging punctuation for Roman fonts
Hanging punctuation controls the alignment of punctuation marks for a specific paragraph. When Roman Hanging
Punctuation is turned on, the following characters appear outside the margins: single quotes, double quotes,
apostrophes, commas, periods, hyphens, em dashes, en dashes, colons, and semicolons. When a punctuation
character is followed a quotation mark, both characters hang.
Keep in mind that the paragraph alignment determines the margin from which the punctuation hangs. For left-
aligned and right-aligned paragraphs, punctuation hangs off the left and right margin, respectively. For top-aligned
and bottom-aligned paragraphs, punctuation hangs off the top and bottom margin, respectively. For centered and
justified paragraphs, punctuation hangs off both margins.

Choose Roman Hanging Punctuation from the Paragraph palette menu. A check mark indicates that the option
is selected.
Note: Double-byte punctuation marks available in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts in the selected range will not
hang when you use Roman Hanging Punctuation. Instead, use either Burasagari Standard or Burasagari Strong. These
items are available only if you select Show Asian Text Options in the Type preferences.

Adjust hyphenation automatically
The settings you choose for hyphenation affect the horizontal spacing of lines and the aesthetic appeal of type on a
page. Hyphenation options determine whether words can be hyphenated and, if so, what breaks are allowable.
