![]() ![]() ![]() Any default formatting, including font properties, will be shown in Default formatting field.Ī font may be defined in a parent paragraph or character style – when you edit a style, you will see a Based on field which may contain the name of a parent style. Ensure View | Text Highlighting is enabled.Ī font may also be set in the style sheet defaults, so if you can’t find the font in the paragraph style or direct character formatting, click Edit on the toolbar, then Styles, and then edit the style properties using the Edit button. Or, you can get Jutoh to show all direct character formatting in a different colour in your text – click Options on the toolbar, then click Highlighting, and check Direct character formatting. You will see a list of all the relevant spans of text, and clicking on each will select the associated span of text. You can use the Inspector tab to find direct character formatting in your project – set the Inspector mode to Formatting, and check the Direct character formatting option. To see what character formatting is applied, you can look at the bottom of the Styles tab as your cursor moves over the text. This overrides any font specified in the paragraph style. This is the preferred way of doing things, since it’s easy to change later.Ī font can also be specified for a span of text – it’s very common (though not a good idea) to use direct formatting to apply fonts to blocks of text as character formatting. Sometimes it isn’t obvious where the font has been specified, and you may be puzzled about why a certain font (or text size) appears in your book preview.Ī font can be specified in a paragraph style, such as ‘Body Text’. The scaling factor to convert a point size in Jutoh to an em size in HTML can be adjusted in the Options panel in Project Properties, should you wish to tweak the way text size is calculated. Any font above or below 12pt will be sized relative to the default font, using the HTML ‘em’ unit. The reader software, and user, will choose the best size. Keep your main content, apart from headings, footnotes, captions etc., at 12pt – this is the point size that Jutoh regards as the ‘default’ size, and which can therefore be left unspecified in the generated ebook. Directly formatting all your content with fonts is unnecessary, can cause inconsistencies in your book and should be avoided. You can apply fonts directly via the Tools tab of the Formatting Palette or via Format | Character, but it is much better to use named paragraph styles, such as ‘Heading 1’ or ‘Body Text’ and set the font there. Applying fonts in the text editorįonts are available to be applied within Jutoh just as in any other word processor.
