Adjust character spacing between Japanese and Latin text or numbers

Microsoft Office Word 2003

Show Tip

To adjust the character spacing for Japanese text only, use the Character Spacing tab (Format menu, Font command). To make the character spacing uniform, click the option you want in the Spacing box. Then in the By box, enter the amount of space you want. To apply different character spacing depending on the font or text, select the Kerning for fonts check box. In the Points and above box, enter the minimum font size of characters on which you want kerning to be performed. Kerning can only be performed on text formatted with TrueType fonts.
