The web-based WYSIWYG module Text Editor offers many functions that users already know from other applications, without an additional software being necessary. Define font sizes, text styles, text alignment or use the Spell Check for different languages.

Typography in the Browser
The freely scaleable Text Editor can provide a user with different typographical functions. Fully irrelevantly of whether the user creates a catalog or a newspaper: The Text Editor allows non-arbitrary fonts or attributes and formatting to be applied. The customer decides whether and which typographic functions may be used in text entry.

Optimum Co-Operation
The Text Editor module gives the user an optional list of style sheets which have been defined by the Administrator. These style sheets may be applied by the user to single characters or whole paragraphs. Through the co-operation between »VivaGate« and the »VIVA Network Publishing« Server these style sheets will be applied typographically correctly in the print document.

Even if the user of the Text Editor is not permitted by the Administrator's definitions to apply typographic attributes, this does not necessarily mean that no attributes will be available in a later document. Some customers do not want to bother the user with attributes or simply want to avoid error sources and therefore want the »VIVA Network Publishing« Server attributes to be applied on the basis of a set of rules (e.g. Headline, Sub-headline, Body text) and/or a list of other key definitions. Thus it is possible in the Design Template on the »VIVA Network Publishing« Server to define that for example certain word may receive the attributes Bold and Red.

Complex Text Management
The integration of »VivaGate« and the »VIVA Network Publishing« Server is also documented in Text Management. In the Design Template on the »VIVA Network Publishing« Server the Administrator may define how the text should react in the case of a text overflow. Here »VivaGate« offers three options in connection with the »VIVA Network Publishing« Server:
1. The text pushes down or influences other elements such as for example images (Concept »Text before Layout«).
2. The text or the font size and the leading/line spacing are automatically reduced until the text fits in the allocated text object (Concept »Layout before Text«).
3. Layout and font size are not adjusted, but the overflow is indicated by a warning in the PDF.
