Front matter

Intended audience

HTML/XHTML and CSS content authors who want to get a general idea of what lies in the future with regard to CSS support for non-Latin text support.

The tutorial assumes a basic understanding of CSS.

Why should you read this?

The CSS3 modules currently in development will introduce a large number of properties designed to support non-Latin text, from vertical script support to kashida justification, from ruby positioning to list numbering. This tutorial will give you a glimpse of some of the properties that lie in store, and discuss how you can help to make these improvements a reality.
