Ruby Function (Phonetic Guide)?

Post by alexzhangzy »

I decided to purchase Nisus Writer Pro because MS Word has trouble processing pinyin with tone marks. I write a lot of material for Chinese language learners so adding phonetic guide above Chinese characters is important to me. However, I read on the forum that there was no ruby function on Nisus. That thread was nearly a year ago, before the new update. Both MS Word and Mac build in Pages have this function, is there a reason Nisus Writer doesn't have it?

Hello Alex: thank you for purchasing Nisus Writer! You are correct that there is currently no support for Ruby/furigana in Nisus Writer. It's a feature that is requested often enough, so hopefully we'll be able to add it for some future version. I'll be sure to add your vote that we consider it. Thanks for the feedback!
