Article Window

Article window contains a text of dictionary article for selected list line.

Article text formatting (color of items, dividing on lines. etc.) depends on dictionary type. Jardic Pro uses different formatting routines for different dictionaries.

Each dictionary can use its own abbreviations to describe words or kanji. To understand such abbreviations, please refer to proper dictionary documentation. For example, KANJIDIC uses more then 20 parameters ("fields") to describe kanji properties and to keep references to other known dictionaries. Refer to KANJIDIC documentation to understand meaning of those parameters.
