[cc to Bobby Tung, Chen Yijun and Wu Xiaoqian] This is great news! Bobby, Yijun, Xiaoqian, Dave is looking for rules for positioning of tone marks in bopomofo ruby. I have the following links, but I wonder whether there is something more authoritative: http://www.edu.tw/files/site_content/M0001/juyin/jb99.htm?open http://www.edu.tw/files/site_content/M0001/juyin/jb89.htm?open http://www.edu.tw/files/site_content/M0001/juyin/jb98.htm?open http://www.edu.tw/files/site_content/M0001/juyin/hb99.htm?open http://www.edu.tw/files/site_content/M0001/juyin/hb89.htm?open http://www.edu.tw/files/site_content/M0001/juyin/hb98.htm?open It's also not clear to me when to use each of the three alternatives, which have very slightly different dimensions. (To see the text you may need to manually set the character encoding of the page to the Big5 Traditional Chinese encoding.) Chinese experts, could you please advise?

You can control the position of the tone marks with a nested ruby, but this is obviously not ideal. I am looking for guidance regarding how to position the tone marks automatically, but I am unclear on what the rules for positioning them are. I see different positioning rules in various examples... > > dave > (hyatt@apple.com) > > >
