"The remaining typesetting features--focused on text
transformation, line breaking, justification, spacing, and
alignment--remain as âCSS Text Level 3â.
-------- Forwarded Message --------
I am very pleased to announce that the CSS WG has published a
Candidate Recommendation of the CSS Text Module Level 3:
https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-3/
This module has been a core part of the decades-long collaboration
between the CSS Working Group and the Internationalization Working
Group to bring internationalized typesetting capabilities to CSS
and the Web platform.
Note: The feature set in early drafts of âCSS3 Textâ was been
split into three parts, with âCSS Writing Modes Level 3â and âCSS
Text Decoration Level 3â having already progressed to CR (and
beyond). The remaining typesetting features--focused on text
transformation, line breaking, justification, spacing, and
alignment--remain as âCSS Text Level 3â.
âCSS3 Textâ:
https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text/
https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-decor/
https://www.w3.org/TR/css-writing-modes/
This specification would not have been possible without the
contributions of many experts across the W3C, Unicode, IDPF, and
Japanese standards communities across the past two decades. As the
longest continuing editor, I personally would like to thank my
current and former co-editors their hard work, and also our
relentless i18nWG reviewers for their knowledge and feedback. We
are appreciative also of Microsoft, Netscape, Mozilla, Opera
Software, Antenna House, Bloomberg, EAST Japan, Adobe,
Hewlett-Packard, and Google for their support of our work in the
CSSWG--and no less everyone who contributed to the outstanding W3C
Internationalization programme which has continuously guided and
informed our work.
As usual, changes since the previous Working Draft are documented
in the Changes section:
https://www.w3.org/TR/2020/CR-css-text-3-20201222/#changes
There's also a Disposition of Comments covering all feedback
received since the 2013 Last Call Working Draft:
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-3/issues-lc-2013
Please send any comments to the CSSWG mailing list,
<www-style@w3.org>, prefixed with [css-text-3] (as I did on
this message) or (preferably) file them in the GitHub repository
at
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues
At this point CSS Text Level 3 is feature-frozen; further work in
this area will continue in CSS Text Level 4.
