Setting precise type specifications

You can perform the following functions to create and manage type attributes:

Specify font, style, and type size

Convert type case to change character to all uppercase, all small caps, or other options

Set alignment, leading, range kerning, and baseline shift

Space characters and words precisely to adjust horizontal scaling or space between words or letters

Select or find and replace type attributes

If you change type specifications with text selected, the settings are applied to the selection only, and type specifications revert to the default settings for subsequent text. If you change type specifications with no text selected, the settings are applied to any subsequent text you enter.
