text.setRangeStyle takes charAlign, so the panel menu works on the
characters selected with the Type tool (it routes there while text is
edited, and charAlign alone was answered with "nothing to change").
One char_align_param parses it for both commands. The menu shows with
Preferences › Type › Show East Asian Options, like Mojikumi Set and
Top-to-Top Leading. Rows in the Simplified Chinese, Spanish and
Brazilian Portuguese catalogs; the Japanese Em Box Center names the em
box. ROADMAP: the gating, the range command, and ICF top/bottom still
missing.

Illustrator sets a paragraph's direction (Left-to-Right / Right-to-Left
Paragraph Direction in the Paragraph panel, with the Middle Eastern
options) and keeps its alignment buttons physical; it has no automatic
alignment toggle. So:
- ParaStyle.direction (None: from each paragraph's first strong
character, as before; written only when set), the Paragraph panel's two
direction buttons with Show Indic Options (original icons), and
text.setFormat {direction: "auto"|"leftToRight"|"rightToLeft"}. The
layout uses it as the base direction.
- The Automatic alignment check box is gone. Justify::Auto stays as the
start of the paragraph's direction, set on new type only (text.create,
the Type tools, with the mojikumi default in one new_type_para()):
TextObject::point is Left again, so importers (PDF, SVG, DXF, EMF) keep
their own alignment. The alignment buttons show what Auto resolves to.
- Bidi only where there is something right to left: plain paragraphs skip
the algorithm (no per-layout allocation), it runs once per paragraph
(shaping takes the paragraph's levels instead of recomputing them; path
type computed it four times), and the shaper keeps Han, Hiragana,
Katakana and Bopomofo in one segment (splitting at every change of
script cost Japanese text a shaper call per kana-kanji switch).
- Vertical type keeps its logical order, so its glyphs and lines are not
marked right to left (the caret no longer runs backwards down a column).
- PDF import puts Hebrew and Arabic, which PDFs (and VectorCraft's own
export) draw in visual order, back in logical order with the direction
that shows it as drawn; with bidi layout it came back mirrored.
- SVG import pins the direction SVG implies (left to right unless
direction: rtl); SVG export also outlines right-to-left paragraphs.
- Docs (development.md), ROADMAP (folded into the Type entry, Type core
row) and README updated; catalog rows for the new labels.

Japanese full-width punctuation is half a mark and half a space (an
opening bracket's space before it; a closing bracket's, comma's or full
stop's after it). Set solid, 」「 or 。」 show a full em of air between
the marks, and a line ending in 。 stops half an em short of the edge.
- `ParaStyle.mojikumi` (Paragraph panel › Mojikumi): None, or Line-end
Punctuation Half Width, which (JLREQ 3.1.4) lets consecutive
punctuation share one half-em space — a closing mark followed by
punctuation loses the space after it, an opening bracket after another
the space before it — and sets a closing mark ending a line half
width. Only full-width marks (advance an em) are touched, never inside
a tate-chu-yoko block; vertical type the same way down the column.
- New type (`text.create`, Area/Path Type) takes Line-end Punctuation
Half Width, the usual default of Japanese layout; documents from
before it and imported text keep None (written only when set, so
older files and older apps are unaffected). `text.setFormat
{mojikumi: "none"|"lineEndHalf"}`.
- Builds on #344: on justified lines the room it frees is spread
between the characters.
- Catalog rows in ja and zh-hant.

Clicking with the Type tool runs text.create at once, and ending the edit
(Escape, another tool, a click elsewhere) only stopped editing, so every stray
click left an invisible empty text object and a "Type" history step.
The Type tool now remembers the point type its click placed and, when editing
ends with it still empty, runs the new text.discardEmpty command: it removes
the text and, when nothing else changed since the step that created it, drops
those steps so neither the document nor the history keeps a trace. A command
from outside the tool that takes the edited text out of the selection
(Deselect, a Layers panel pick) or removes it now ends the edit too
(Tool::after_command). Dragged area-type frames and type in or on a path keep
their frame.

File > Document Setup is a tabbed dialog over one engine command,
document.setup (no params: a query; any keys: one undo step;
document.setUnits stays as the units alias).
- General: units, bleed (four sides with a link toggle), Edit Artboards,
Show Images in Outline Mode (greyscale pixels under the frame),
Highlight Substituted Fonts/Glyphs (pink boxes on screen only).
- Transparency: grid size and colour presets or custom colours, Simulate
Colored Paper, the flattener preset (built-in or saved) and Discard
White Overprint (Overprint Preview keeps white overprints visible).
- Type: language with its quotes, Use Typographer's Quotes for the Type
tool and Smart Punctuation, superscript/subscript size and position and
small caps size (Character panel position/smallCaps; changing the
setup restyles the text in the same undo step), text export (SVG text
as text or outlines by default).
- The canvas draws a red bleed outline and the grid in the document's
colours and cell size as one textured quad, also in rotated views; a
white Background Contents exports raster formats opaque.
Model: Document.setup (DocSetup, defaulted, skipped when default) and
CharStyle position/small_caps; old files load unchanged.
tests_transparencygrid's helper now finds the grid by its texture (the
grid is one textured mesh instead of per-cell rectangles).

Shipped code no longer unwraps, expects or panics: every one of the 124
unwrap()/expect()/panic!/unreachable! sites outside tests now handles the
failure (Result/Option, ?, let-else, defaults) and reports errors to the user.
- Lints: workspace clippy denies unwrap_used, expect_used, panic, todo,
unimplemented and unreachable; clippy.toml allows them in tests, and
integration tests, examples and testkit opt out explicitly.
- Safety net (vectorcraft_engine::guard): a panic in a top-level command rolls
the document back and returns EngineError::Internal; a panicking tool is
reset; the MCP server answers with an internal error and keeps serving; the
UI frame and each control request are guarded.
- APIs that hid failures now return them: Rendered::to_png/to_jpeg/to_webp
return Result (JPEG/WebP errors used to write empty files),
FontDb::face returns Option, Region::top returns Option.
- Fuzzing: engine/tests/import_fuzz.rs feeds garbage, hostile and mutated SVG
and PDF through import → render → export (30k cases locally, no panics).
- Docs: AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md rule, docs/development.md "Robustness" section,
README pointer and a PR template checklist.

With type selected, stroke.set (without an item) gives every run the
weight, cap, join, miter limit and dashes instead of adding an object
stroke; while the Type tool edits text, the Stroke panel styles the
selected characters through text.setRangeStyle `strokeOptions`, and the
panel reads the first run (or the selection's style).
CharStyle gains stroke_cap, stroke_join, stroke_miter_limit and
stroke_dash (defaulted, skipped when default). Character strokes and
object strokes on type now draw through the shared stroke geometry on
the canvas, in PDF and in SVG (live text writes cap/join/miter/dash and
tspans reset what the first run sets; object strokes are drawn on the
glyph outlines), so every stroke option, opacity and blend applies.
Outlines, the Eyedropper and graphic styles keep the options.

Edit -> "PDF Presets…"; the clipboard preferences read "Legacy vector
clipboard (no transparency)" / "Legacy vector clipboard" (keys copyAicb and
aicbMode unchanged); the second keyboard shortcut set is "Classic Defaults",
and the old set name is still accepted from saved UI preferences, imported
sets and shortcuts.preset. The MCP server instructions, the apply_effect and
create_graph tool descriptions, the text.createInPath params doc,
docs/mcp.md, the ui-egui crate description and the PDF compatibility docs
no longer name another vendor.
New `cargo xtask brands` (run by `cargo xtask ci`) fails on vendor product
or company names in Rust string literals (labels, params docs, menus,
panels, MCP definitions; comments and test code skipped), Cargo.toml
descriptions and text under docs/ and packaging/; a required legacy alias
is marked `brand-ok`. xtask shares one git file listing between the asset
and brand checks. docs/development.md describes the gate.
