Chris Cicchino's "Adobe InDesign – Page Tool and Liquid Layout" (1:02–
2:06, 13:47) sizes pages from the Control panel with the Page tool
selected: X/Y, W/H, the page-size preset ("US Business Card"),
orientation, Liquid Page Rule ("Controlled by Parent"), Objects Move with
Page and Show Parent Page Overlay. DesignCraft's Control panel showed the
(empty) object controls.
- ui: with the Page tool, the Control panel shows the selected page (or
the page in view): the reference point (W/H, preset and orientation
keep it in place via layout.pageSize's anchor), X/Y (read-only),
W/H, the preset dropdown, portrait/landscape, Liquid Page Rule, Objects
Move with Page (always on: pages don't move within spreads yet) and
Show Parent Page Overlay.
- doc: LiquidRule::ControlledByParent (the parent page's rule, Off
without one; resolved by liquid::effective_rule); Page.show_parent_overlay.
- engine: layout.pageOptions {pages, showParentOverlay}; liquid.pageRule
takes controlledByParent.
- canvas: the parent page's size over a page with the overlay on.
- Liquid Layout panel and Control panel share InDesign's rule list
(Off, Scale, Re-center, Object-based, Guide-based, Controlled by
Parent); "US Business Card" preset; translations.
Builds on the Page tool PR (#862) for the selected page.

Chris Cicchino's "Adobe InDesign – Page Tool and Liquid Layout" (0:42–
2:06) selects a page with the Page tool, gets its bounding box with
handles, drags a handle (the page springs back: a liquid-rule preview),
holds Option to really resize it, Shift for proportions, and reads the
size in a tooltip by the cursor. DesignCraft's Page tool only opened a
generic Page Size dialog on click.
- tools: the Page tool selects the page under a click (none on the
pasteboard); the selected page shows its outline, eight handles and
its liquid page rule ("Scale", "Object-Based"…) above it. Dragging a
handle previews layout.pageSize (the liquid rule re-flows the
objects) and springs back on release; Alt resizes, Shift keeps the
proportions; a W/H readout follows the pointer; resize cursors on the
handles. Double-click a page for the Page Size dialog.
- doc: Selection.page (the Page tool's page); engine: layout.selectPage
(no undo step).
- layout.pageSize `anchor` (0-8): the page grows away from the
reference point and its objects and guides keep their place relative
to it (a handle drag anchors the opposite edge); liquid rules work
from that.
- canvas: PageHandles and Tag overlays; translations for the tags and
the Resize Page undo label.

The DestIn mask now covers the whole render target (and the PDF's
exported area), with the gradient kept in item space through the paint
transform, since past the gradient's ends the end opacity carries on: a
child's long drop shadow or thick stroke is faded, not cut off at a box.
feather_bounds counts only shown children and active states, walking
nested groups without recursion.

A gradient feather on a group (Gradient Feather tool over grouped text, as
in LYH Studio's poster tutorial) did nothing on screen: groups never went
through the effects path. In PDF the group's mask was the group's own path
bounds, and a group has no path, so the mask covered a box of zero size and
hid the group.
- Item::feather_bounds: the box the feather spans, the objects' bounds for
a group.
- Render: a feathered group draws its objects in one layer, then fades it
with the same mask as other objects (fx::gradient_feather_mask).
- PDF: the group's mask spans its objects.

The Type tool's clicks, drags and double-clicks on type on a path went to
the character at the same spot of the straightened line, and the caret
and highlight were drawn straight. A click now finds the character where
its nearest point along the path is (compose::PathTextMap, from the line
to the path and back, as path_glyphs places the glyphs); the caret stands
across the path there and the highlight bends with the text. A click on
the letters, above the path, hits the frame.
Depends on #636 (PathWarp::nearest).

Selected type on a path shows its start and end brackets across the path,
as in InDesign, and the Selection and Direct Selection tools drag them
along it (Move Bracket, one undo step): the text starts and ends where
they are, and text past the end bracket is overset.
- doc: PathType.end (None: the path's end)
- geom: PathWarp::nearest, the arc length of the nearest point
- engine: type.pathOptions {end}; brackets stay on the path and can't cross
- compose: the line runs from the start to the end bracket
- idml: EndBracket read and written
- tools: Cursor::PathBracket

A placed PDF, EPS or SVG under the Eyedropper matches attributes again,
as before, instead of failing with "no placed image under the point"
(Asset::is_raster, shared by the tool and color.sample). color.sample
hands its colour to object.color, which now colours selected text, the
text of selected frames ({text: true}), or the typing colour of an empty
story; a caret in existing text is refused before a swatch or undo step.

Share duplicate file data while keeping distinct link paths independent, and leave unused assets out of saved documents.
Validation: all six cargo xtask ci gates passed on the merge candidate; 1,170 native tests passed and all 15 WASM packages checked. Independent regression checks cover updates, relinking, embedding, undo and save/reopen.
Task: #420
Consecutive paragraphs with the same Split Columns settings form a split
block: their text fills the sub-columns of the column one after the
other from the block's top, inset by the outside gutter and separated by
the inside gutter, then moves on to the next column. When text follows
the block, its last part is balanced across the sub-columns and the text
continues below the deepest one at the full column width; a block that
ends the story fills its sub-columns in turn. Keep options don't apply
between a block's lines.
IDML: SplitColumnInsideGutter and SplitColumnOutsideGutter import and
export (paragraph attributes split_inside_gutter, split_outside_gutter).

* Lists: numbering formats from IDML (A, B, C; i, ii, iii; 01, 02 …)
A paragraph's numbering format, number expression, bullet character and
text after the bullet import from IDML and export back. Numbered labels
come from the expression ("^#.^t", "Tabel ^#^t") with its
metacharacters expanded, in place of a fixed "n." label. Adds 001 and
0001 number styles, keeps letter and roman labels short for huge
numbers, and counts saturate instead of overflowing.
* Lists: an empty paragraph gets no bullet or number
A list paragraph with no characters before its return draws no label,
and numbering carries on past it: in a story's own list, in named lists
(also across stories) and in cross-reference paragraph numbers.

* Set warichu as smaller lines inside the parent line.
Type › Warichu stacks the selected run after the line is broken, closes up the rest of the line, and round-trips the IDML warichu properties. The line break itself still sees the full-size run.
* Keep clicks, the caret, and Up/Down on each warichu row.
The glyphs were already stacked inside the parent line, but hit testing, the caret, and vertical movement still used that parent line. Break minimums, row widths, spacing, and tab leaders now follow the small lines, and underlines sit on the small baseline.

A break character is stored as the last character of the paragraph it
ends, followed by the usual '\n' separator. The story model, paragraph
ranges, styles, editing and every exporter keep splitting paragraphs on
'\n' only, so the change stays in the places that create, lay out or
write break characters:
- IDML import writes the break and ends the paragraph, so the range that
follows keeps its own paragraph style. NextOddPage and NextEvenPage map
to new odd and even page break characters; IDML export writes a
paragraph that ends in a break as that one Br with its
ParagraphBreakType, so export and re-import give the same story.
- Word and RTF import, Type > Insert Break Character (with odd and even
page breaks added) and typing end the paragraph after a break. Typing
between a break and its return goes to the next paragraph; deleting
either deletes both.
- Layout: a break that ends a paragraph leaves no empty line; the next
paragraph starts in the next column, frame or page, as a paragraph start
option would. Page breaks and Next Page start options move to the next
frame on a later page; odd and even ones to the next page with that
page number parity (no such frame: overset). A break inside a paragraph
from an older document still moves the rest of that paragraph on.
Storing the break as a paragraph separator of its own would have changed
every place that counts or splits paragraphs on '\n'.

* Text frames: column rules draw between columns on screen and in PDF
A frame with Column Rule on gets a bar centred in each gutter, inside the
insets, broken around paragraphs that span columns; right-to-left and
vertical frames included. object.textFrameOptions takes columnRuleWeight
and columnRuleColor (unknown swatches are an error) and an inset array
whose null sides stay; document.inspect reports the rule.
* Text Frame Options: Column Rules fields; OK changes only edited fields
The dialog shows the selected frame's options, with an inset field per
side, and sends only what the user changed, so unequal insets survive.
The rule weight is read in points.
* Column rules: tint, horizontal offset and top/bottom insets; IDML import and export
Text Frame Options gains Tint %, Top Inset, Bottom Inset and Horizontal
Offset for the rule, and object.textFrameOptions and document.inspect
take and report them. IDML reads the ColumnRule attributes of
TextFramePreference on frames and object styles and writes them when a
rule is set.

IDML names some languages by locale code
(AppliedLanguage="$ID/de_DE_2006", "$ID/nl_NL_2005") beside names such
as "English: USA" and "Spanish: Castilian". language_tag maps any locale
code (ll, ll_CC, ll-CC, with a reform year after them) to its BCP 47 tag
(de-DE, nl-NL; kept once per process, at most 512 distinct tags), ignores
IDML's $ID/ prefix, and knows Spanish: Castilian (es-ES) and Swiss French
and Italian. The stored name stays as written, so IDML round trips are
unchanged.
What depends on the language now goes by the tag: typographer's quotes
(by language subtag; Swiss regions take guillemets), English
hyphenation and spelling (is_english), Korean word breaking and the CJK
fallback chains (ja-JP, ko-KR are Japanese and Korean whatever the
region).
A character the applied font lacks is drawn as that font's missing-glyph
box (its .notdef, gid 0), on screen and in PDF, and Preflight lists the
characters by font ("Missing glyphs in <family> <style>: …", an error,
at most 20 named). A .notdef without an outline is drawn as a hollow box
across its advance, so a missing character never disappears. PDF draws
.notdef glyphs as paths, which PDF/A and PDF/UA accept. Kenten marks are
set in their text's font the same way.
The document setting Draw Missing Glyphs from Fallback Fonts
(DocSettings::glyph_fallback; Preferences > Composition,
document.preferences {glyphFallback}, undoable) draws them from fallback
fonts instead (the language-aware chains, then any font; kenten marks
from a fallback font, else a bullet). It is off in new documents and
IDML imports and on in files saved before it existed, which keep
drawing as they did. A missing font's substitute always uses fallback
fonts. The composition cache's signature includes the setting. Tests
whose Arabic comes from a fallback font turn the setting on.
language_tag ignores case and punctuation and recognises Chinese in its
common spellings and locale codes (Simplified Chinese, Chinese
(Simplified), zh_CN, zh-Hans; Traditional Chinese, zh_TW, zh_HK,
zh-Hant), and Japanese and Korean locale codes (ja_JP, ko_KR).
Typographer's quotes for Chinese and Japanese follow the tag, so every
spelling takes the same quotes. IDML import keeps the name as written.
The fonts in a document's Document Fonts folder are registered under a
font scope that the document holds while it is open (Document::font_scope,
runtime only; DocState keeps the scope alive and closes it when the last
copy of the state goes: file.close, closing a tab, revert, a book
chapter's export, the session ending). Composition, preflight, font.list,
Package and the font menus, Glyphs panel and previews look fonts up
through FontDb::scoped(scope): the document's own faces first, then the
shared ones. Other open documents don't see them, and two documents with
fonts of the same name each set text in their own. Composite fonts'
member fonts and the fallback for kenten marks are looked up the same
way.
Font files stay in memory for the session (FaceRef keeps faces for the
process); a document opened again reuses the faces of its unchanged files
(same path, length and modification time) instead of reading them again.
The composition cache's signature includes the scope; the word cache and
the outline and PDF font caches are keyed by face. Variable font
instances are kept per base face.
A family's installed faces join the shared fonts all at once, and a
face two lookups load at the same time is kept once, so a parallel
fallback lookup never takes a family's bold before its regular has
loaded.
Vertical is a story property: every frame of a thread is vertical or
horizontal together, a frame threaded onto a story takes its direction,
and frames split off by threading or breaking a thread keep theirs.
Type > Story Direction is type.storyDirection {vertical} (checked in the
menu) for the stories of the text selection or selected frames;
object.textFrameOptions {vertical} and frame.create {vertical} set the
frames' stories. Documents that stored Vertical on the frame open with
each story taking its first frame's direction. IDML StoryOrientation is
read into and written from the story, beside its column direction
(StoryDirection), which stays a separate setting.
Korean is set word by word (KLREQ): Hangul, in any language, and Han
ideographs in Korean-language text take no line breaks between
characters, so lines break at spaces. Glyphs carry their language tag
for this. A paragraph attribute, koreanCharBreaks (type.para, paragraph
styles, Paragraph Style Options > Justification), breaks between
syllables instead. It is DesignCraft-only; IDML doesn't carry it.
A paragraph's kinsoku set decides which breaks it forbids, and Korean
still breaks at spaces under one.
Kinsoku still holds, also when the single-line composer has to split a
word wider than the measure: the split moves back so no line starts
with closing punctuation.
The character's language (as IDML names it) maps to a BCP 47 tag
(designcraft_doc::language_tag) and is the shaping context's language
on the harfrust buffer, so OpenType locl applies for every language in
the list (Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Turkish, ...), not only Arabic,
Persian, Urdu, Hebrew and English: other names used to reach the
shaper as they were written, which it doesn't know, so their locl never
applied. designcraft_fonts no longer maps names itself. The word-shaping
cache is keyed by the tag. Chinese: Simplified and Chinese: Traditional
join the language list (plain Chinese stays, tagged zh); Simplified
Chinese takes curly quotes, Traditional Chinese corner brackets.
A document keeps one data source, the placeholders that point at its
fields, and the last merge layout. Empty merge state is omitted from
the file. New documents and IDML imports start with that state empty.
Port the CJK1 and AR1 changes from 3ecdb78 and de83cdc onto current main. Resolve translation and font-stack conflicts by retaining main localization and craft-fonts integration while preserving all typesetting code, tests, and documentation.
Validation: all six CI gates passed, including 616 tests and WASM checks.
expect() calls become let-else / fallbacks. A parent spread without pages
(possible in a .designcraft file) no longer underflows in parent_page_for,
and check() rejects a next_id so large that allocating ids would overflow.
Both crates deny the panicking lints.
