<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear colleagues,</div><div><br></div><div>I plan to make real progress in Bejing, although I don't think that </div><div>we can close this DR there.</div><p>First, I now think that we should not provide *procedures* for<br>computing margins from Kihon-hanmen or computing Kihon-hanmen from<br>margins. Rather, we should provide some *declarative relationships*<br>among Kihon-hanmen parameters and margin parameters. This is because<br>there are more than one way to make these parameters consistent. For<br>example, when character pitches are changed, should we change margins<br>or should we change the number of characters per line? Both are<br>sensible. Another example is changing line pitches. Should we then<br>change margins or the number of lines per column? We do not want to<br>tie the hands of developers by mandating some procedure.</p><p>Second, I also think that we should first explain margins, paper<br>sizes, columns, and gaps for horizontal writing and vertical writing.<br>In particular, we should carefully explain which value is physical<br>(i.e., independent from the writing-direction) and which value is<br>logical (i.e.,dependent on the writing-direction). This explanation<br>is useful even when Kihon-hanmen is not used. Moreover, description<br>of Kihon-hanmen and declarative relationships becomes much easier<br>since we can use column widths and hights rather than margins.</p><div>I will further improve my PPTX document, incorporate sketch of<br>proposed changes, and explain them in Beijing.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Makoto</div><p><br></p><p><br></p></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2013-06-16 16:51 GMT+09:00 MURATA Makoto <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:eb2m-mrt@asahi-net.or.jp" target="_blank">eb2m-mrt@asahi-net.or.jp</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Folks,<br>
