Character Spacing

     Selecting Character Spacing from the Text menu activates a 
 dialog window that displays the current character spacing settings
 (kerning) in points. Kerning is the amount of space added to or 
 subtracted from the normal distance between characters. The 
 application will accept a kerning amount between -100 and 100. A 
 negative amount compresses text, a positive amount expands text. 
 The default value of 0 keeps the characters at a normal distance from 
 each other.
     To change the character spacing, enter the new kerning amount 
directly into the Character Spacing text box in this dialog window.
 Alternatively, use Character Spacing controls on the Text 
 Toolbar (see the Text Toolbar section for details) to decrease and 
 increase the kerning amount.
