Joomla Plugins

özgür koca

Say “Hello!” to the one and only Joomla! CMS plug-in that indeed improves the quality of texts formatting providing automatic typography functionality. True Typography is a step to rebirth of good old typography traditions that always existed in printing but are undeservedly neglected on the web.

What does it actually do? True Typography doesn’t bother about inserting some odd fonts nor it is limited to the “smart quotes” thing and other simple tricks. It’s a full-featured automatic typography script that includes the following:

* Auto­mated hyphen­a­tion*
* Smart repla­cing of text char­ac­ters with their respect­ive HTML entit­ies: quotes* (“text sample”, „text­beis­piel”, «пример текста»), dashes (-, –, —), ellipses (…), copy­right © and trade­mark ™ sym­bols, and many others
* Hand­ling of suf­fixes, frac­tions and math expres­sions (51÷3×25=425)
* Dia­crit­ics for Eng­lish words (“ångström”)
* CSS styles for lead­ing quotes, acronyms, num­bers, guillemets
* Spa­cing con­trol: glu­ing val­ues to units, widow pro­tec­tion, forced internal wrap­ping of long URLs and email addresses
* Addi­tional options (dis­abled by default):
o Open­ing all external links in new win­dows (without using the “tar­get” tag that is not XHTML valid)
o Repla­cing cus­tom pat­terns (only text con­tent is parsed, tags are left untouched).

* Mul­tiple lan­guages are respected

And remember that details make things perfect! ;o)
