Freeway Reference: Working with Text

The encodings options are also tied in with fonts selected in the Text panel in Document Setup. Each encoding is associated with both

a fixed and a proportional font, which will be used only for display in Freeway. The fixed and proportional fonts are meant to represent

the default fonts used for these encodings by the browser. To select other fonts for HTML text, you need to use the Font Sets dialog in

the Edit menu to set them.

Checkboxes and radio buttons for Form items use the fixed version of the font. The same is true for straight HTML text where a fixed

font has been specified.

In addition to text in HTML boxes, some other fields (namely the title, alt text and form items) are also affected by the encoding. This

means that on a non-Roman page (such as Japanese or Russian) the fields can be entered either in that language or in Roman.

Power Tip: By default the Encoding popup menu is set to Automatic. Unless you

speciﬁcally need to set a page’s encoding to match a language, leaving the encoding at

Automatic means Freeway will choose the correct output according to the text on the page.

Note: For HTML text in a non-Roman language, the viewer’s browser will require suitable

language support to display the page correctly.

Issues that affect HTML text

Line breaks

With HTML text, the word processor technique of getting your layout right using the space bar and returns does not readily apply. In

general, when using HTML text, you should not “force” line breaks—unless you do it with extreme care. For instance, you can type the

following in Freeway, forcing a return after the word, “here”:

This is how it may appear in the browser:

Here it looks fine. But if it is viewed in the browser at a slightly larger font size, this is how it appears:

The solution is not to force returns but to let the text wrap naturally. The result is less control, but less damage. If you absolutely need a

bit of text to wrap in a certain way, you’ll have to make it a graphic or use CSS fixed sizes (Freeway Pro only). Just be aware that if graphic

text is used, it is no longer text when viewed in the browser, and it loses the ability to be recognized by search engines or copied and

searched by users. The best method is to accept the flexible nature of HTML and work with it. (For a discussion of the relative merits of

HTML and GIF text, see page 80.)

Soft returns

You may have a line of text with a few words and you don’t want it to “word wrap”, as in the following example. This is how it appears

in Freeway:

And this is how it appears in the browser:

1 2 ... 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 ... 249 250
