Automatically adjust character spacing for mixed East Asian and Latin text

The feature or some of the options described in this Help topic are only available if support for Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, or Korean is enabled through Microsoft Office Language Settings.

When you type East Asian characters and numerals together, or East Asian text in the same paragraph with Latin alphabet characters or numerals, the spacing between certain characters or punctuation may become irregular and make the text difficult to read. In such cases, Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 allows you to adjust the character spacing automatically.

1. On the Format menu, click Asian Typography.
2. In the Asian Typography task pane, do one of the following:
   • To adjust the character spacing between East Asian and Latin alphabet characters, select the Automatically adjust space between Asian and Latin text check box.
   • To adjust the character spacing between East Asian characters and numerals, select the Automatically adjust space between Asian text and numbers check box.
