You should try to be consistent with the size of the Japanese font and not try to fill the bubbles by increasing the font size. The size: I will probably say it often in this introduction but I think the typesetter should try to be as close to the raw as possible.There are different kind of settings for a text: size, italic, bold, anti-aliasing, all-caps, left align text, center text, horizontal/vertical typesetting, etc. Usually we try to use one type of font for each kind of text: speech, thought, sfx, etc. I’m not going to go into details in this introduction about the choice of fonts, each site has its own guideline and you can find Red-Hawk guideline in V). You can manually change the shape of the text using the “Enter” key to do “carriage return”.

You should try to avoid that the text touches the border of the bubbles. If it’s an ellipse then you should try to typeset with an elliptic shape, if it’s a rectangle then you should typeset with a rectangular shape. I think that the best result is obtained when the shape of the text is the same than the shape of the bubble. The shape of the text is an important thing when you typeset, that’s what makes your text looks good. Typesetting is composed of different aspects that I will try to tackle. The cleaner will remove the text and improve the quality of the image, and then the typesetter will set the translation of the text. The first two parts of this introduction about typesetting is mostly focused on aesthetics while the next two parts explain how to typeset with photoshop.īut before that, let’s take a look at a raw page.Īs you can see there are different kind of text: speech inside bubbles, sfx, shouts inside bubbles, text inside boxes, etc.
