Kurz gesagt

Ein Live-Editor für eine kleine Taschenausgabe von The Time Machine. Bei jeder Eingabe wird die Seite im Hintergrund neu gesetzt, sodass der Bildschirm weiter reagiert.

Was Sie setzen

Sie setzen Kapitel I von H. G. Wells’ The Time Machine als Taschenausgabe von 110 × 147 mm, mit dem Markdown daneben. Die Titelseite hat das Foto eines Messingzifferblatts mit vier kleinen Zifferblättern, mit Diffusionsmodellen erzeugt, auf einem im Code gezeichneten ochsenblutroten Feld, über dem Titel in Cinzel. Der Text des Kapitels beginnt auf der neunten Zeile, unter einer römischen Ziffer und einer Messinglinie, und läuft in Baskervville zu 9,5 auf 13 pt unter Kolumnentiteln in Kapitälchen. Jeder Tastendruck setzt das ganze Kapitel in einem Web Worker neu, und der Canvas rechts blättert zu der Seite, die den Cursor enthält. Unter dem Editor bleibt ein Zeiger, den der Hauptthread in jedem Frame dreht, stehen, solange dieser Thread beschäftigt ist, und die Statuszeile nennt die Dauer des Builds, den längsten Frame und wie viele Builds ein neuerer Tastendruck abgebrochen hat. Ein Menü oben rechts verlegt den Build zum Vergleich in den Hauptthread.

Dieses Rezept beantwortet

  • Wie bleibt die Seite bedienbar, während ein langes Buch gesetzt wird (Web Worker, Abbruch)?
  • Warum ändern sich meine Zeilenumbrüche oder überlappen Wörter im PDF, und wie lade ich Schriften richtig?
  • Kann ich Seiten oder PDFs auf einem Server oder in einer CLI (Node) erzeugen?

Die kurze Antwort

async function startLayoutWorker(faces) {
  // No options: from a CDN the engine starts its worker entry, at the page's own version,
  // through a same-origin blob; in a bundle it starts the worker file next to the module.
  const layout = createLayoutWorker();
  // The worker measures with its own FontFaceSet, not the page's. Without the bytes of every
  // face it measures in a fallback font, and the console names each missing family once.
  const payloads = await Promise.all(faces.map(async ({ family, weight, style, url }) => {
    // Check the status: a 404 page sent as a font only logs a warning inside the worker.
    const response = await fetch(url);
    if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`${family} ${weight} ${style}: HTTP ${response.status}`);
    return { family, weight, style, buffer: await response.arrayBuffer() };

Zutaten

Schrift
Baskervville, Baskervville SC, Cinzel (SIL OFL 1.1)
Dateien
  • dial-1120.jpg
  • The title page’s brass dial, a photograph (Generated With Diffusion Models, eigener Text)
  • The title page’s oxblood cloth and gilt frame, drawn in code in the page’s palette (Ignacio Ferro, MIT)

Zubereitung

#1 · Den Worker mit einem Aufruf starten

Den Code für diesen Schritt finden Sie oben unter Die kurze Antwort. createLayoutWorker() nimmt keine Optionen. Wenn das Modul von esm.sh kommt, liegt die Worker-Datei auf dem Origin von esm.sh, wo der Konstruktor Worker sie ablehnt, daher startet die Engine ihren Worker-Einstiegspunkt über ein Blob desselben Origins, in der Version, die die Seite importiert hat. In einer gebündelten App startet derselbe Aufruf die Worker-Datei neben dem Modul. build() des Handles nimmt denselben Inhalt und dieselbe Konfiguration wie buildDocument() und liefert dieselbe Art von Dokument (Layout in einem Web Worker ausführen).

#2 · Jede Schrift zweimal laden

script.js · Zeilen 309–321im vollständigen Code
const FONTS = { // every face the pages use: the page loads them, and so must the worker
  Baskervville: ['400', '400i'], // text, folios, subtitle, colophon
  'Baskervville SC': ['500'], // running heads, the author
  Cinzel: ['700'], // title, numeral, chapter title
};
// The worker gets the same Fontsource files the page loads: identical metrics on both threads.
const faces = Object.entries(FONTS).flatMap(([family, specs]) => specs.map((spec) => {
  const [id, weight, style] = [family.toLowerCase().replace(/ /g, '-'), parseInt(spec, 10),
    spec.endsWith('i') ? 'italic' : 'normal'];
  const file = `${id}@5/files/${id}-latin-${weight}-${style}.woff2`;
  return { family, weight: String(weight), style,
    url: `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@fontsource/${file}` };
}));

Der Worker hat ein eigenes FontFaceSet und sieht die Schriften nicht, die die Seite geladen hat, daher lädt die kurze Antwort dieselben Fontsource-Dateien und übergibt ihre Bytes an registerFonts(), jede Schriftstärke als String ('400'). Lassen Sie diesen Aufruf weg, misst der Worker in einer Ersatzschrift: Er setzt dieses Kapitel in 175 statt 190 Zeilen, die erste Zeile endet auf „him)“ statt auf „of“, und die Konsole der Seite nennt jede fehlende Familie einmal. Eine Schriftdatei, deren Download scheitert, ist schwerer zu bemerken. Erhält der Worker eine 404-Seite statt der normalen Baskervville, löst registerFonts() trotzdem auf, und das Kapitel kommt mit 186 Zeilen heraus, mit einer Warnung nur in der Konsole des Workers. Die kurze Antwort prüft daher den Status jeder Antwort, bevor sie Bytes sendet, und wirft einen Fehler mit der Schrift und dem HTTP-Status. Die Seite lädt dieselben Schriften außerdem mit loadFonts(), weil der Canvas mit den Schriften der Seite malt.

#3 · Bei jedem Tastendruck bauen, im Hauptthread malen

script.js · Zeilen 344–390im vollständigen Code
let [doc, shown, builds, cancelled] = [null, 0, 0, 0];
// For the comparison, the main thread keeps a measurement cache between keystrokes, as the
// worker does: both threads then time a build that measures only what changed.
const mainCache = createMeasurementCache();
function paint(n = shown) { // the canvas is sized to its box, in device pixels
  shown = Math.max(0, Math.min(doc.pages.length - 1, n));
  const vdtPage = doc.pages[shown]; // a laid-out page, not the page config above
  const height = ($('proof').clientHeight || 640) * Math.min(devicePixelRatio || 1, 2);
  renderPageToCanvas(vdtPage, doc, $('proof'), { scale: height / vdtPage.height });
  $('proof').setAttribute('aria-label', `Page ${vdtPage.pageLabel}`);
  $('folio').value = `${shown + 1} / ${doc.pages.length}`;
}
function follow() { // turn to the page that holds the caret: every block keeps its source offset
  const caret = $('source').selectionStart;
  paint(doc.pages.findLastIndex((vdtPage) => vdtPage.columns.some((column) =>
    column.blocks.some((block) => block.sourceStart <= caret))));
}
async function refresh() {
  const [ticket, onMain, started] = [++builds, $('thread').value === 'main', performance.now()];
  frames.worst = 0;
  const content = { markdown: $('source').value, resources };
  const next = onMain ? buildDocument(content, config(), mainCache) : await typeset(content);
  await new Promise(requestAnimationFrame); // the first frame after the build shows any stall
  if (!next || ticket !== builds) { cancelled++; return; } // a newer build has been asked for
  doc = next;
  if (document.activeElement === $('source')) follow(); else paint();
  showPages(doc, { title: 'The Time Machine · chapter I, set in a Web Worker' });
  $('clock').value = `${onMain ? 'Main thread' : 'Worker'} · ${doc.pages.length} pages in `
    + `${Math.round(performance.now() - started)} ms · longest frame ${Math.round(frames.worst)}`
    + ` ms · ${builds} ${builds === 1 ? 'build' : 'builds'}, ${cancelled} cancelled`;
}
$('source').addEventListener('input', refresh);
for (const type of ['click', 'keyup']) $('source').addEventListener(type, () => doc && follow());
$('thread').addEventListener('change', refresh);
$('prev').addEventListener('click', () => paint(shown - 1));
$('next').addEventListener('click', () => paint(shown + 1));
// A dial the main thread turns on every frame: it stops while that thread is busy.
const frames = { last: 0, worst: 0 };
requestAnimationFrame(function turn() { // the clock, not the frame's timestamp: a late frame
  const now = performance.now(); // keeps the time it was due, which hides the stall
  frames.worst = Math.max(frames.worst, now - (frames.last || now));
  frames.last = now;
  const deg = ((now * 0.06) % 360).toFixed(1); // a turn in 6 s
  $('hand').setAttribute('transform', `rotate(${deg})`);
  requestAnimationFrame(turn);
});
await refresh();

typeset() bricht den laufenden Build ab, bevor es den nächsten anfordert. Das Promise des abgebrochenen Builds wird sofort mit einem AbortError abgelehnt, den typeset() in null verwandelt. Im Worker wird ein Build, der noch in der Warteschlange steht, sofort verworfen, und ein laufender hält am Ende seines aktuellen Platzierungsdurchgangs an, weil der Build nur zwischen Durchgängen auf einen Abbruch prüft. refresh() nummeriert seine Builds und malt nur den neuesten, sodass ein verspätet eintreffender Worker-Build keinen aus dem Hauptthread übermalen kann. Das Dokument kehrt in den Hauptthread zurück, wo renderPageToCanvas() es mit den dort registrierten Bildern malt. Der Worker braucht nur die Größe jedes Bildes, die der Ressourceneintrag trägt (1100 × 840). Jeder Block behält seinen Versatz im Markdown (sourceStart), und follow() zeigt die letzte Seite mit einem Block, der am Cursor oder davor beginnt.

#4 · Eine Titelseite als Überschriftenstil

script.js · Zeilen 55–77im vollständigen Code
// # The Time Machine {style="title"}: numbered false, so the Introduction is still chapter I.
const PLATE = TRIM.width * (840 / 1100); // mm: the plate's depth at full width (84 mm)
const DIAL = { x: 20, y: 7, size: 70 }; // mm: the dial's photograph, centred on the plate
const titlePage = {
  id: 'title', numbered: false,
  span: 'page', // the author's name stands below the column's foot, which would cut it
  header: { elements: [] }, footer: { elements: [] }, // no running head, no folio
  advancedDesign: { enabled: true, slot: { elements: [
    { kind: 'image', id: 'plate', resourceId: 'plate',
      placement: { anchor: { to: 'bleed', edge: 'top-left' }, size: { width: 'fill' } } },
    { kind: 'image', id: 'dial', resourceId: 'dial', placement: { anchor: { to: 'bleed',
      edge: 'top-left' }, offset: { x: mm(DIAL.x), y: mm(DIAL.y) },
      size: { width: mm(DIAL.size), height: mm(DIAL.size) } } },
    text('title', '{titleText}', DISPLAY, 28, { fontWeight: 700, lineHeight: 1.04,
      overflow: 'wrap' }, // the title takes two lines
    onPage(PLATE + 11)),
    text('subtitle', '{subtitle}', TEXT, 12, { italic: true, color: col('oxblood') },
      onPage(PLATE + 34.5)),
    brassRule('rule', onPage(PLATE + 43), 12),
    text('author', '{author}', LABEL, 10, { fontWeight: 500, letterSpacing: pt(2) },
      onPage(PLATE + 46.5)),
  ] } },
};

Die Zeile # The Time Machine {style="title"} setzt Seite 1 im Überschriftenstil title, dessen leere header und footer die Seite ohne Kolumnentitel und Pagina lassen. numbered: false hält den Titel aus der Kapitelzählung heraus, sodass Introduction weiterhin Kapitel I ist. Die Tafel ist an der oberen linken Ecke des Anschnitts verankert, und der Name des Autors steht unter dem Fuß der Spalte. Ein Design, das in seiner Spalte bleibt, wird am Fuß der Spalte abgeschnitten, daher setzt der Stil span: 'page'; ohne die Einstellung wird der Name des Autors nicht gemalt.

#5 · Kolumnentitel nach Rolle der Seite

script.js · Zeilen 81–97im vollständigen Code
// pages: 'body' keeps the heads off the title page and the opener; parity puts the book's
// title on the verso and the chapter on the recto, folios on the outer edge.
const HEAD_Y = 8.2; // mm from the top edge to the top of the running heads
const SHIFT = (INNER - OUTER) / 2; // mm: the text block's centre is off the page's centre
const head = (id, content, parity, edge, x, style) => ({ kind: 'text', id, content, parity,
  pages: 'body', fontSize: pt(8), color: col('oxblood'), ...style,
  placement: { anchor: { to: 'page', edge }, offset: { x: mm(x), y: mm(HEAD_Y) } } });
const smallCaps = { fontFamily: LABEL, fontWeight: 500, letterSpacing: pt(1.2) };
const folio = { fontFamily: TEXT, color: col('ink') }; // the heads' size: the same baseline
const header = { elements: [
  head('verso-folio', '{pageNumber}', 'even', 'top-left', OUTER, folio),
  head('verso-title', '{title}', 'even', 'top', -SHIFT, smallCaps),
  head('recto-chapter', '{chapterTitle}', 'odd', 'top', SHIFT, smallCaps),
  head('recto-folio', '{pageNumber}', 'odd', 'top-right', -OUTER, folio),
] };
const footer = { elements: [{ ...text('drop-folio', '{pageNumber}', TEXT, 8,
  { color: col('muted') }, inColumn(6.5)), pages: 'opener' }] };

pages: 'body' hält die Kolumnentitel von Titelseite und Auftakt fern, und parity setzt den Buchtitel auf die linken und den Kapiteltitel auf die rechten Seiten, mit den Seitenzahlen am Außenrand. Der Auftakt erhält stattdessen eine Pagina am Fuß, aus einem Fußzeilenelement mit pages: 'opener'. Seitenzahlen und Kolumnentitel haben alle 8 pt und hängen 8,2 mm unter der Oberkante, sodass die Ziffern der Pagina auf der Grundlinie der Kolumnentitel stehen.

#6 · Der Kapitelauftakt

script.js · Zeilen 101–112im vollständigen Code
const chapter = { level: 1, numberingTemplate: '{1:I}', // {number} prints 'I'
  breakBefore: { enabled: true, parity: 'any' }, // the next page, on either side
  marginTop: pt(0), marginBottom: pt(0),
  advancedDesign: { enabled: true, minHeight: line(8), slot: { elements: [
    text('numeral', '{number}', DISPLAY, 24, { fontWeight: 700, color: col('oxblood') },
      inColumn(5)),
    brassRule('rule', inColumn(18.5), 10),
    text('chapter', '{titleText}', DISPLAY, 12, { fontWeight: 700, letterSpacing: pt(1.8),
      textTransform: 'uppercase', overflow: 'wrap' }, inColumn(22.5)), // a longer title wraps
  ] } } };
const colophon = { id: 'colophon', fontSize: pt(7.5), lineHeight: pt(10.5), color: col('muted'),
  textAlign: 'center', firstLineIndent: pt(0) };

{number} des Designs druckt die Kapitelnummer in der Form, die numberingTemplate: '{1:I}' ihr gibt, als römische I. minHeight reserviert mindestens acht Zeilen, sodass der Text auf der neunten beginnt, solange der Titel eine oder zwei Zeilen einnimmt, und weiter unten, wenn ein längerer Titel mehr Raum braucht. breakBefore mit parity: 'any' lässt das Kapitel auf Seite 2 beginnen, seiner zweiten Seite gegenüber; die Vorgabe schickte es auf Seite 3, eine rechte Seite.

Markdown-Beispiel · 118 Zeilen · content.en.mdtitle: "The Time Machine" subtitle: "An Invention" author: "H. G. Wells" --- # The Time Machine {style="title"} # Introduction The Time Traveller (for so it will be convenient to speak of him) was expounding a recondite matter to us. His grey eyes shone and twinkled, and his usually pale face was flushed and animated. The fire burnt brightly, and the soft radiance of the incandescent lights in the lilies of silver caught the bubbles that flashed and passed in our glasses. Our chairs, being his patents, embraced and caressed us rather than submitted to be sat upon, and there was that luxurious after-dinner atmosphere, when thought runs gracefully free of the trammels of precision. And he put it to us in this way—marking the points with a lean forefinger—as we sat and lazily admired his earnestness over this new paradox (as we thought it) and his fecundity. “You must follow me carefully. I shall have to controvert one or two ideas that are almost universally accepted. The geometry, for instance, they taught you at school is founded on a misconception.” “Is not that rather a large thing to expect us to begin upon?” said Filby, an argumentative person with red hair. “I do not mean to ask you to accept anything without reasonable ground for it. You will soon admit as much as I need from you. You know of course that a mathematical line, a line of thickness *nil*, has no real existence. They taught you that? Neither has a mathematical plane. These things are mere abstractions.” “That is all right,” said the Psychologist. “Nor, having only length, breadth, and thickness, can a cube have a real existence.” “There I object,” said Filby. “Of course a solid body may exist. All real things—” “So most people think. But wait a moment. Can an *instantaneous* cube exist?” “Don’t follow you,” said Filby. “Can a cube that does not last for any time at all, have a real existence?” Filby became pensive. “Clearly,” the Time Traveller proceeded, “any real body must have extension in *four* directions: it must have Length, Breadth, Thickness, and—Duration. But through a natural infirmity of the flesh, which I will explain to you in a moment, we incline to overlook this fact. There are really four dimensions, three which we call the three planes of Space, and a fourth, Time. There is, however, a tendency to draw an unreal distinction between the former three dimensions and the latter, because it happens that our consciousness moves intermittently in one direction along the latter from the beginning to the end of our lives.” “That,” said a very young man, making spasmodic efforts to relight his cigar over the lamp; “that … very clear indeed.” “Now, it is very remarkable that this is so extensively overlooked,” continued the Time Traveller, with a slight accession of cheerfulness. “Really this is what is meant by the Fourth Dimension, though some people who talk about the Fourth Dimension do not know they mean it. It is only another way of looking at Time. *There is no difference between Time and any of the three dimensions of Space except that our consciousness moves along it*. But some foolish people have got hold of the wrong side of that idea. You have all heard what they have to say about this Fourth Dimension?” “*I* have not,” said the Provincial Mayor. “It is simply this. That Space, as our mathematicians have it, is spoken of as having three dimensions, which one may call Length, Breadth, and Thickness, and is always definable by reference to three planes, each at right angles to the others. But some philosophical people have been asking why *three* dimensions particularly—why not another direction at right angles to the other three?—and have even tried to construct a Four-Dimensional geometry. Professor Simon Newcomb was expounding this to the New York Mathematical Society only a month or so ago. You know how on a flat surface, which has only two dimensions, we can represent a figure of a three-dimensional solid, and similarly they think that by models of three dimensions they could represent one of four—if they could master the perspective of the thing. See?” “I think so,” murmured the Provincial Mayor; and, knitting his brows, he lapsed into an introspective state, his lips moving as one who repeats mystic words. “Yes, I think I see it now,” he said after some time, brightening in a quite transitory manner. “Well, I do not mind telling you I have been at work upon this geometry of Four Dimensions for some time. Some of my results are curious. For instance, here is a portrait of a man at eight years old, another at fifteen, another at seventeen, another at twenty-three, and so on. All these are evidently sections, as it were, Three-Dimensional representations of his Four-Dimensioned being, which is a fixed and unalterable thing.” “Scientific people,” proceeded the Time Traveller, after the pause required for the proper assimilation of this, “know very well that Time is only a kind of Space. Here is a popular scientific diagram, a weather record. This line I trace with my finger shows the movement of the barometer. Yesterday it was so high, yesterday night it fell, then this morning it rose again, and so gently upward to here. Surely the mercury did not trace this line in any of the dimensions of Space generally recognised? But certainly it traced such a line, and that line, therefore, we must conclude, was along the Time-Dimension.” “But,” said the Medical Man, staring hard at a coal in the fire, “if Time is really only a fourth dimension of Space, why is it, and why has it always been, regarded as something different? And why cannot we move about in Time as we move about in the other dimensions of Space?” The Time Traveller smiled. “Are you so sure we can move freely in Space? Right and left we can go, backward and forward freely enough, and men always have done so. I admit we move freely in two dimensions. But how about up and down? Gravitation limits us there.” “Not exactly,” said the Medical Man. “There are balloons.” “But before the balloons, save for spasmodic jumping and the inequalities of the surface, man had no freedom of vertical movement.” “Still they could move a little up and down,” said the Medical Man. “Easier, far easier down than up.” “And you cannot move at all in Time, you cannot get away from the present moment.” “My dear sir, that is just where you are wrong. That is just where the whole world has gone wrong. We are always getting away from the present moment. Our mental existences, which are immaterial and have no dimensions, are passing along the Time-Dimension with a uniform velocity from the cradle to the grave. Just as we should travel *down* if we began our existence fifty miles above the earth’s surface.” “But the great difficulty is this,” interrupted the Psychologist. “You *can* move about in all directions of Space, but you cannot move about in Time.” “That is the germ of my great discovery. But you are wrong to say that we cannot move about in Time. For instance, if I am recalling an incident very vividly I go back to the instant of its occurrence: I become absent-minded, as you say. I jump back for a moment. Of course we have no means of staying back for any length of Time, any more than a savage or an animal has of staying six feet above the ground. But a civilised man is better off than the savage in this respect. He can go up against gravitation in a balloon, and why should he not hope that ultimately he may be able to stop or accelerate his drift along the Time-Dimension, or even turn about and travel the other way?” “Oh, *this*,” began Filby, “is all—” “Why not?” said the Time Traveller. “It’s against reason,” said Filby. “What reason?” said the Time Traveller. “You can show black is white by argument,” said Filby, “but you will never convince me.” “Possibly not,” said the Time Traveller. “But now you begin to see the object of my investigations into the geometry of Four Dimensions. Long ago I had a vague inkling of a machine—” “To travel through Time!” exclaimed the Very Young Man. “That shall travel indifferently in any direction of Space and Time, as the driver determines.” Filby contented himself with laughter. “But I have experimental verification,” said the Time Traveller. “It would be remarkably convenient for the historian,” the Psychologist suggested. “One might travel back and verify the accepted account of the Battle of Hastings, for instance!” “Don’t you think you would attract attention?” said the Medical Man. “Our ancestors had no great tolerance for anachronisms.” “One might get one’s Greek from the very lips of Homer and Plato,” the Very Young Man thought. “In which case they would certainly plough you for the Little-go. The German scholars have improved Greek so much.” “Then there is the future,” said the Very Young Man. “Just think! One might invest all one’s money, leave it to accumulate at interest, and hurry on ahead!” “To discover a society,” said I, “erected on a strictly communistic basis.” “Of all the wild extravagant theories!” began the Psychologist. “Yes, so it seemed to me, and so I never talked of it until—” “Experimental verification!” cried I. “You are going to verify *that*?” “The experiment!” cried Filby, who was getting brain-weary. “Let’s see your experiment anyhow,” said the Psychologist, “though it’s all humbug, you know.” The Time Traveller smiled round at us. Then, still smiling faintly, and with his hands deep in his trousers pockets, he walked slowly out of the room, and we heard his slippers shuffling down the long passage to his laboratory. The Psychologist looked at us. “I wonder what he’s got?” “Some sleight-of-hand trick or other,” said the Medical Man, and Filby tried to tell us about a conjuror he had seen at Burslem, but before he had finished his preface the Time Traveller came back, and Filby’s anecdote collapsed. :::space{lines=2} :::paragraphs{style="colophon"} Set in Baskervville, Baskervville SC and Cinzel (SIL Open Font License).

Der Layout-Worker misst mit seinen eigenen Schriften

Ein Worker hat ein eigenes FontFaceSet, die Schnitte, die die Seite geladen hat, sieht er also nicht. Senden Sie ihm die Bytes jedes Schnitts mit registerFonts() vor dem ersten Build; die Schriftstärke darf ein String ('400') oder, seit postext 1.5, eine Zahl sein. Ohne sie misst der Worker in einer Ersatzschrift, und die Zeilenumbrüche und die Seitenzahl ändern sich; seit 1.5 meldet die Konsole das, einmal für jede fehlende Familie.
