Hello,
I am having serious difficulty finding a way to implement acceptable line breaking in a long document I am working in Thai script. I am working with InDesign CS6, using the World-Ready Composer. I have tried a variety of differnet Thai fonts. The text I am flowing into the document has already been marked (by the author) with a large number of additional acceptable break locations (which I have converted to different types of spaces). The text still breaks randomly in the middle of strings (and also at the space locations -- but not seemingly with any priority).
I have tried using the standard Paragraph Composer as well. Some line spacing changes, and cursor behaviour over some strings is different, but the bad line breaks still happen.
I have also tried the same text in CS5 and CS4. Same problem.
The Language setting for styles is set to 'No Language'. I was certainly hopeful that the extra breaks marked in the text with thin or zero width spaces would provide enough line break flexibility. Does not seem so.
Would anyone here have any advice, or other (better) experience working with Thai?
Thanks
Jeff
