I tweeted about extending the `font-kerning` property values for CJK proportional spacing and kerning, - https://twitter.com/MurakamiShinyu/status/1620977530554716160 - https://twitter.com/MurakamiShinyu/status/1620982963294081024 and got many supportive reactions for the new value `all` (= 3. apply palt/vpal and kern everything). Options 4 and 5 do not appear to be needed. I got a reply about it: - https://twitter.com/monokano/status/1620989798264758272 > I think it is better not to be able to do palt-on/kern-off because it is bad know-how, although some people are tempted to do it for the purpose of "loose kerning" even in DTP. (translated from Japanese) For "loose kerning" purpose, it will be better to use `letter-spacing` together with `font-kerning: all`, e.g.: ```css .loose-kerning { font-kerning: all; /* 'palt' on, 'kern' on */ letter-spacing: 0.05em; } ``` -- GitHub Notification of comment by MurakamiShinyu Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/6723#issuecomment-1416705183 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
