En pocas palabras

La misma página de cómic en inglés, español, francés, japonés, chino y árabe: solo cambian las palabras, y Postext redibuja cada bocadillo alrededor de ellas.

Lo que vas a componer

Una página de cómic, La radio del faro: Maya llega al faro de su abuelo cuando entra una tormenta, la radio no funciona y el culpable es Biscuit, dormido encima del cable. La división y los cinco dibujos a la acuarela son fijos; de una edición a otra solo cambia un guion de nueve líneas. Cada edición de esta receta compone su propio idioma y, al lado, la página en francés: inglés y francés, español y francés, y así con el japonés, el chino y el árabe. El motor redibuja cada bocadillo alrededor de las palabras que lleva. El japonés se rotula en columnas verticales con Zen Antique. Las páginas japonesa y árabe se leen desde la derecha, así que las tres viñetas de la tira central cambian de sitio.

Esta receta responde a

  • ¿Cómo rotulo un cómic en otro idioma?
  • ¿Cómo rotulo japonés en vertical dentro de los bocadillos?

Elaboración

#1 · Una config para todos los idiomas

El código está en la respuesta corta. En la config nada nombra un idioma salvo locale. Sin fontFamily, la rotulación toma la letra de cómic del idioma del documento (defaultComicFont): Comic Neue, Zen Antique, Noto Sans SC o Playpen Sans Arabic, y la onomatopeya la letra de rótulo que le corresponde. writingMode: 'auto' pone los bocadillos japoneses en columnas verticales; readingDirection: 'auto' hace que las páginas japonesa y árabe se lean desde la derecha, como sus idiomas, de modo que el mismo split="30 / 35 [* | * | *] / *" coloca la viñeta de la radio a la derecha y la del gato a la izquierda. Los ids de los personajes (maya, tomas) son los mismos en todos los guiones, y a ellos responden los anclajes de los dibujos.

El cuerpo es uno para todo el libro. El guion inglés tiene 216 letras, el español 220, el francés 224 y el chino 74 caracteres; los guiones más largos tienen bocadillos más grandes, nunca letra más pequeña.

#2 · El francés va en todas las ediciones

script.js · líneas 213–218en el código completo
const build = (md, cfg) =>
  buildWithFonts(() => buildDocument({ markdown: md, resources }, cfg), md);
const docs = [await build(markdown, config())];
// French is not a site language, so every edition carries its page: the same config
// with another locale, as a new object (the engine caches resolved configs by identity).
docs.push(await build(french, { ...config(), locale: 'fr', footer: footerFor('fr', 'fr') }));

El sitio no tiene páginas en francés, así que cada edición construye dos documentos: su propia página y luego la francesa, desde content.fr.en.md, con la misma config y locale 'fr'. La config se copia en un objeto nuevo, porque el motor guarda las configs resueltas por identidad. El guion francés lleva el espacio fino de no separación antes de ! y ?, como manda la tipografía francesa.

#3 · Los dibujos no cambian

};

Las zonas seguras son más estrechas que las celdas de esta división: la tira central tiene tres viñetas de unos 46 mm de ancho por 80 mm de alto, así que cada dibujo cuadrado muestra una columna de cerca del 58 % de su anchura, y su zona segura, la cara del personaje y aquello de lo que habla, ocupa del 36 al 42 %. Los dibujos no se reflejan para el japonés ni para el árabe (mirrorArt sigue en false): Maya sigue subiendo el camino desde la izquierda, y solo el orden de las viñetas sigue a la lectura.

Errores frecuentes

Error frecuente

Carga todas las fuentes antes de componer

La composición mide el texto con las fuentes que el navegador ha cargado y guarda los anchos, así que una fuente que llega después de la primera composición deja cortes de línea erróneos y un PDF que ya no coincide con la pantalla. Carga antes todos los pesos y estilos, y llama a clearMeasurementCache() antes de recomponer si alguna llega tarde. Fuentes antes de componer →

Error frecuente

Una configuración se cachea por identidad: crea un objeto nuevo

El motor guarda en caché las configuraciones resueltas según la identidad del objeto, así que modificar el mismo objeto y volver a componer reutiliza el resultado anterior. Crea un objeto nuevo en cada composición: por eso la configuración de una receta es una función, config(). Páginas en un canvas →

  • Una línea del guion nombra al personaje por su id, no por su nombre: escribe maya: en todos los idiomas. El nombre que anuncia un lector de pantalla es cast[].name.
  • La página francesa comparte los dibujos de la edición, así que el texto alternativo de sus viñetas está en el idioma de la edición; escribe ::panel{alt="…"} en content.fr.en.md si lo quieres en francés.
