The Text Tool allows simple text to be placed anywhere in the document.
Create a text box by clicking on one side and dragging to the other. Text will be entered into an expanding box which can be moved or resized later if necessary. You can now start typing.
The Transparent button on the toolbar controls whether the text box is transparent or opaque. If it is transparent, blank space characters in the text will let the underlying design show through.
The Justification button on the toolbar controls whether the text will be left, center, right or justified and the text will move accordingly within the text rectangle.
Copy the typed text to the clipboard by choosing Copy from the Edit menu. The text can also be dragged to another window or program by dragging the text box outside the document window and dropping in into the desired destination.
Paste text in from another window or program by choosing Paste from the Edit menu. Text can also be dragged into the current text box from another program. You can also choose Place from the File menu to place a text file into the document.
Move the text box you have created by pressing the arrow keys on the keyboard or dragging it.
Adjust the left or right edge of the text box by moving the mouse to the edge and dragging it left or right. The text will automatically rewrap itself as you drag.
