+## Composite Fonts
+
+A composite font sets each class of character in a font of its own
+([Creating composite fonts](https://help.adobe.com/archive/en_US/illustrator/cs3/illustrator_cs3_help.pdf#page=347)).
+`type.compositeFonts.set {fonts: [{name, parts}]}` replaces the active document's composite fonts as one undo step,
+and adds no step when nothing changes. `parts` holds `kanji` (the base font), `kana`, `punctuation`, `symbols`, `roman`
+and `numerals`, each `{font, style?, size?, baseline?, hScale?, vScale?, scaleAtCenter?}`; a part left out copies the
+`kanji` part. Which characters fall in each class is VectorCraft's own rule: Kanji takes ideographs, full-width
+letters and digits and every character no other class takes; Kana takes hiragana and katakana of both widths;
+Punctuation takes East Asian and full-width punctuation, quotes and dashes; Symbols takes arrows, math, shapes and
+other symbols; Roman takes half-width letters, their punctuation and spaces; Numerals takes the digits 0 to 9.
+
+`size` (10 to 400, 100 by default) and `baseline` (-100 to 100, 0 by default; positive raises) are percentages of the
+type's size, VectorCraft's own ranges. `hScale` and `vScale` (10 to 400, 100 by default) scale Kana, Roman and
+Numerals only, and `scaleAtCenter` (Kana only) scales kana from the center of the em box instead of the baseline. A
+value out of range, a scale on another class, an unknown class or key, a name that is empty, longer than 255
+characters, shared by two fonts (in any case) or the name of an installed font, and a part set in a composite font are
+each refused with an error, and nothing changes. A document keeps at most 256.
+
+Type set in a composite font names it as its family (`text.setStyle {font: "My Composite"}`), and the font menus list
+composite fonts first. The layout sets each character in its class's font, a letter and its combining marks together.
+A composite font taken out of the document leaves its type naming it, and the type shows as missing. Composite fonts
+are saved with the document. SVG and legacy `.ai` write type in one of the document's composite fonts as outlines, and
+SVG, PDF, EPS and legacy `.ai` export draw it in the font's parts also when the document was read without an open app.
+`type.compositeFonts.list` returns the document's composite fonts.
+
+`text.replaceFont` and `addon.cleanup.replaceFonts` with a composite font as the new font set the type in it by its own
+name, and the type keeps its style. `text.fonts` lists a composite font by its name; its `status` is the worst among the
+parts its characters are drawn in, and `missingGlyphs` counts the characters that their part's font lacks.
+`text.missingFonts`, File › Package and the warnings about fonts that aren't available name the part fonts that the
+characters are drawn in. `text.glyphAlternates` lists the alternates of a character from its part's font.
+
+`type.compositeFonts.export {path?, names?, fonts?}` writes the document's composite fonts (all, or those `names`
+lists), or the `fonts` given, to a `.vccomposite` file; without `path` it returns the file's text as `data`.
+`type.compositeFonts.import {path | data | dataBase64, apply?}` reads a file of at most 4 MB. With `apply` (the
+default) its fonts join the document's, replacing a font of the same name, as one undo step; with `apply: false` it
+only returns them. Opening a `.vccomposite` file imports it.
+
+Type › Composite Fonts… (shown with Show East Asian Options) opens the Composite Fonts dialog on the document's fonts:
+Font picks one, and a table sets each class's font, style, size, baseline and scales. New adds a font based on the one
+picked, Delete Font takes it out, Import… adds the fonts of a file and Export… writes the one picked. OK runs
+`type.compositeFonts.set` with every font as one undo step; a refused font keeps the dialog open.

How gradients follow each effect is VectorCraft's own rule; what each effect does to the object is described in [Distort and transform effects](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-objects/reshape-transform-objects/distort-and-transform-effects-in-illustrator.html) (effects `bake::tests::a_baked_transform_moves_a_placed_gradient_with_the_path`, `bake::tests::a_strokes_own_transform_and_free_distort_move_its_placed_gradient`, `bake::tests::a_fills_gradient_follows_the_effects_around_its_transform_with_options`, `bake::tests::baked_free_distort_moves_placed_gradients_from_the_bounds_to_the_distorted_bounds`, `group::tests::a_groups_transform_and_free_distort_move_the_gradients_placed_on_its_paths`, `group::tests::a_groups_transform_moves_the_gradient_of_its_own_fill`, `group::tests::a_nested_groups_own_gradient_follows_the_outer_groups_transform_and_free_distort`, `group::tests::a_groups_transform_moves_the_gradients_placed_on_an_images_own_fills`, `group::tests::shape_art_moves_gradients_with_a_transform_effect`, `group::tests::shape_art_moves_the_gradient_of_a_symbol_instances_art_with_its_transform`, `tests::art_past_the_budget_keeps_its_own_gradients_in_place`, `tests::a_hidden_path_past_the_budget_leaves_a_layers_gradients_free_to_move`, `tests::edited_freeform_points_follow_a_transform_effect_and_free_distort`; render `objectfx::a_paths_gradient_moves_with_its_transform_and_free_distort`; engine `objexpand::a_placed_gradient_moved_by_a_transform_or_free_distort_expands_as_the_canvas_draws_it`).

   Object › Flatten Transparency, the Flattener Preview, and EPS, PDF and print output that flatten transparency stop building a group's flat regions at the first region past the raster/vector balance's limit (10^(balance/20), rounded down) and rasterize the whole group without building the remaining regions. Building every region gives the same flattened art and the same files. With Clip Complex Regions on, a group builds every region and its image is clipped to them.
   New Symbol and Redefine Symbol on a frame of threaded text take it out of the thread with the text it shows, which the symbol's art holds, and the other frames keep the text they hold. When the last frame goes into the symbol, the text it has no room for goes after the text of the last frame that stays. When every frame of a thread goes into the symbol, the copy of the last frame keeps all its text.
   With Optical Margin Alignment on, or Roman Hanging Punctuation on in the first paragraph, the glyphs at the ends of left-to-right type on a path hang outside its brackets, measured along the path. The type hangs at the start bracket when its line is placed there, hangs at the end bracket when the line is placed there, and hangs at both when it is centered. Glyphs that hang past the end bracket do not make the type overflow, and a hang stops at an open path's end. SVG export writes such type as outlines.
+  Type on a Path Options › Align to Path (option names as in [Create type on a path](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/design-with-text/edit-format-text/create-type-on-a-path.html)) moves each character by its own font, size and vertical scale: Ascender runs the top of the font's em box along the path (the ideographic em box that its `BASE` table, its typographic or `hhea` box or its ideographs give, else an em box centered on the cap height), Descender runs the bottom of the font's bounding box along it, and Center runs a line at half the height of the top of the font's H above the baseline along it. In vertical type, Ascender and Descender move the characters half an em, and Center leaves them on the path. These distances are VectorCraft's own values (`tests::on_path_align_runs_each_glyph_by_its_own_metrics`, `tests::on_path_align_finds_the_em_box_of_each_kind_of_face`, `tests::on_path_align_in_vertical_type_moves_half_an_em`).
   The frames of threaded text share one Optical Margin Alignment setting: turning it on or off in one frame sets it in every frame, threading frames gives the thread its first frame's setting, and frames taken out of a thread keep it.
   The frames of threaded text share one writing direction: Type › Type Orientation (`type.orientation.vertical`, `type.orientation.horizontal`) in one frame sets every frame, threading frames gives the thread its first frame's direction, frames taken out of a thread keep theirs, and the story flows through every frame in the thread's direction.
   Type › Optical Margin Alignment (`type.opticalMarginAlignment`) hangs the punctuation and letter edges at the ends of a type object's lines outside its margins: at the left of left-aligned lines, at the right of right-aligned lines, and at both ends of centered and justified lines, in point and area type of left-to-right paragraphs. Quotation marks, hyphens, full stops and commas hang wholly; asterisks, tildes, ellipses, en and em dashes, colons and semicolons hang by half; and A, V, W, Y, v, w and y hang by a tenth of their width. It is off by default and saved with the type object. Justification's Glyph Scaling leaves the glyphs that hang at their width, so they hang exactly their share, and Standard burasagari counts what hangs at a line's start as room before hanging a comma; `crates/text/src/tests/hang.rs` checks whole paragraphs with both composers, ragged, centred and justified, with Line-end Punctuation Half Width and bidirectional lines.

EPS and SVG write the image's own pixels.

Errors name the parameter, except that a `limitTo` that is not a string, such as `5`, gets an unknown-library error. A `null` counts as left out except for `recolor.apply`'s `model`, which must be a string when given.

The Color Guide has 21 harmony rules, Steps and Variation options and Limit to Library. Adjust Color Balance (its Global mode shifts tints) and Saturate preview live; Edit Colors and Recolor also reach meshes, images and patterns. Recolor Artwork has colour reduction, five recolour methods, presets, Limit to Library, a colour-wheel Edit tab and Edit Color Group; a local Color Themes panel saves five-colour themes.

A pasted code of six digits, with or without `#`, replaces them wherever the caret is. A pasted code of three digits also replaces them, unless the paste holds only those digits and exactly three digits stay; those digits then edit the text in place.

   - **Color Picker layout (#2008):** a centered draggable header, equal-width actions above aligned HSB/RGB/Hex and Lab/CMYK fields, compact field and slider, and warnings below the preview. No horizontal scrolling; narrow windows stack the sections with vertical scrolling. Tests in `dialogs/color_picker.rs` cover actual pointer/key input, typed values before OK/Enter, Cancel/Escape rollback, one Undo step, mode-size stability, warnings and layout at two UI scales. The screen sampler sits above the field and the upstream two-grid Tab order is retained. AccessKit regressions check the action names and each channel slider's displayed value, units and range. German and enlarged English UI renders were reviewed locally; no reference images are shipped. This is a layout improvement, with no change to scores or remaining-hour estimates.
   - **Eyedropper sources (#1251):** ordinary and Shift clicks, Shift+Alt appearance append, raster pixels and gradient-stop sampling can read visible locked/template art and sources outside isolation. Sampling leaves the source and selection intact; Alt reverse still uses editable hits, and hidden art stays excluded. Engine/tool/hit regressions cover the editing boundary, color models and one-step Undo/Redo. The general object/image workflow is described in [public HelpX](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/tool-techniques/eyedropper-tool.html); the lock/isolation expectations come from the user report and these regressions, without a new full-parity measurement.

With the default Generic CMYK, RGB 83/170/223 separates to C59 M12 Y3 K0, where the profile-free formula gave C63 M24 Y0 K13.
-  - **RGB input to other commands in a CMYK document:** type colors (`text.create`, `text.setStyle`, `text.setRangeStyle`), a Shape Builder hex fill, `paint.editGradient` stops, freeform gradient points, gradient mesh points (the Mesh tool gives a new point the fill's color in its own model), the Symbol Stainer's color and the swatch commands (`swatch.new {colors}`, `swatch.newGroup`, `swatch.editGroup`, `swatch.edit`) separate RGB through the color settings as `paint.setFill` does: with Generic CMYK, `text.setStyle {fill: "#53aadf"}` gives C59 M12 Y3 K0.

The paper, solid and overprint colors, the black-generation curve and the black point are VectorCraft's own values: RGB black separates to 90% black under neutral cyan, magenta and yellow that fill the ink limit (C75 M68 Y67 K90).
   - **Swatches made from a shown color in a CMYK document:** the Color panel menu's Create New Swatch, an Alt-click on the Swatches panel's New Swatch button, the New Swatch dialog for a gradient, a Fill or Stroke proxy or the Gradient panel's thumbnail dropped on the Swatches panel (or Alt-dropped on a swatch of its kind), and the Gradient panel's Add to Swatches and Save to Swatches keep each color's model, as the Color Guide's and Color Themes' saved colors do: an RGB object's color gives an RGB swatch, and a gradient's RGB stops stay RGB.
   - **Sample Color from Screen:** an eyedropper button in the Color Picker and `ui.sampleScreenColor` (which can be given a key in Keyboard Shortcuts) pick a color anywhere on the screen with the system's sampler: `NSColorSampler` on macOS, the EyeDropper API in browsers that have it. The color becomes the fill or the stroke as one undo step, or the Color Picker's color, converted from display sRGB into the working RGB space. Windows, Linux and other browsers have no sampler yet; the button is gray there.
   - **Stroke visibility (#1253):** adding paint to a previously unpainted zero-width stroke restores the existing 1 pt default (`PaintDefaults::default`, `Appearance::set_stroke`), for the selected appearance item, the new-art defaults and Swap Fill/Stroke. Positive widths are kept; recoloring a painted zero-width stroke keeps its explicit zero. A real Eyedropper-to-new-shape sequence reproduces the zero-width inheritance.
