Specifics of Georgian DTP

The way you document looks like is influenced not only by its contents, but also by the specifics of the writing system used. The Georgian language employs the Georgian alphabet. See further how it may influence the layout of your materials.

Text spacing

Georgian letters are not joined within a word (i.e. not a cursive script), at least not obligatory. It means that spacing between letters can be applied relatively safely, if the design calls for it.

The letters are generally not case sensitive, i.e. there is no lowercase or uppercase. That being said, there are ways to transfrom a word or a letter to uppercase, but it is highly advisable to avoid that. It usually involves using different scripts and may cause serious layout issues.

Appearance

Georgian letters traditionally do not use italics. There usually are just a few fonts that support designated italics, as there is no tradition of using them in the language. Slanting the text is always possible, but this may look unnatural, and so is not recommended.

The language is written in the left-to-right fashion. If the original text was in a language with the opposite writing direction, the overall layout should be mirrored in the process of desktop publishing.

The average word length in Georgian is 9 letters, which is 2 characters longer than the average. This usually means that a translated text becomes vertically (and possibly horizontally) longer. It is not recommended to break words into multiple lines in typeset documents, so more words end up being pushed to the next line. Hence the additional vertical height of the text.
