You may wish to adopt one or more Chinese characters in the
proxy font(D-
-
6)
into your own
user font(4-
12),
but first, look for existing characters. How confusing to have two versions of
the same character! Consider the following cases:
The character may be incorrect. Verify the character in a dictionary. If
wrong, simply substitute the correct character into the document.
The character already exists in the standard font, and in the on-
line
dictionaries. Look up the character using the various on-
line
dictionaries.
The character already exists in the standard font, but the pronunciation
used in the document does not exist in the on-
line
dictionaries. Try
Finding a Character in the Font(8-
1),
then annotate the character.
The character exists in your
user font(4-
12).
You have already searched the
user dictionary(4-
7)
above, so the
phonetic dictionary(D-
-
6)
entry is not present. Browse your user font to try to match the
character.
Having not found the character:
Copy the character from the proxy font Alternate Character into
your user font. See
Adding New Characters(8-
2).
To change the character in a document to your
user font(4-
12)
character:
Select FormatPick Symbol Set(3-
24)
and register your user font in an Unusedsymbol set index(4-
10).
If you overwrite the existing reference to the substituted user font, you will
lose the concordance, and the
proxy font(D-
-
6)
will not display, making verification more difficult.
Position the insertion point immediately after each proxy
user character(4-
10)
and enter the new user character by pronunciation. They must match.
Alternately, enter the character by hand by typing the symbol set index
format code(D-
-
3),
followed by the pronunciation, the character number, then finally the default
symbol set index format code:
<^[n+SymbolSetIndex><Pronunciation><^R+CharacterNumer><^[n/>
Delete the proxy user character and its pronunciation.
