Jitter application techniques are described for vector objects as implemented by a vector object jitter application system. In an implementation, the vector object jitter application system receives an input defining a stroke to be drawn on a user interface. A vector object is then generated representing the stroke and having a variable width determined by applying jitter to the stroke. The vector object having the variable width is displayed in the user interface as the input is received.

Various techniques more precisely and reliably (a) position top and bottom boundaries of a region of background shading, (b) position left and right boundaries of a region of background shading, (c) define a region of background shading that is applied to Chinese, Japanese, or Korean characters, and (d) apply a clipping path to achieve an arbitrarily-shaped region of background shading. These techniques allow background shading to be applied to textual content precisely and reliably, and also reduce the likelihood that unwanted visual artifacts are introduced into a digital publication.

Systems and methods provide for replacing a glyph in text displayed by an application with an alternate glyph. A glyph is selected, and the character and font of the glyph are identified. Alternate glyphs for the character in the font are then determined, and a visual indicator is displayed proximate to the glyph in the text to indicate availability of the alternate glyphs. In response to a user action associated with the glyph and/or visual indicator, the alternate glyphs are presented. A user can then select one of the alternate glyphs, and the original glyph in the text is replaced with the selected alternate glyph.
