An identifier based glyph search is described. In one or more embodiments, a search input is analyzed in a digital medium environment to generate search tokens and locate a font. The search tokens are compared to identifiers within the font, and corresponding identifiers are used to locate and retrieve particular glyphs from within the font. The retrieved glyphs are ordered and configured for output or display. The resulting glyph results include a variety of glyphs that are related to the search input, and may provide alternative related glyphs even where a user knows an exact identifier associated with a glyph. This technique may be iterated to accommodate changing search inputs and allows users to easily find desired glyphs with minimal effort and without the need for specialized knowledge regarding the identifiers of particular glyphs.

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.
