Formatter
The formatter proper (DITYPE) is a service. The service is intended to start when the operating system boots and to remain running all the time. It reads configuration on startup and remains idle until receives a formatting request. This is how XEPwin is currently set up; it ensures fast response time and efficient caching of reusable resources, such as fonts and hyphenation tables.
DITYPE core communicates with userspace applications via CLISER, which serves as an internal protocol, concealed from the user by applications, APIs and connectors.
