Creating ‘Smooth Text’
Smooth Text Adjusting to Single Line
You can CTRL-click (Mac OS) or right-click (Windows) to select all of
the points one after the other. If four points are displayed, you can select
them in reverse order by additionally pressing the SHIFT key.
8. When finished, click , or press RETURN/ENTER.
9. Fill the smooth text with a color or an image. To do so, use the following
toolbar buttons:
See Creating Tints (page 10-1).
See Creating Gradients (page 10-2).
See Inserting Images Into Layout (page 11-1).
Note:
It is not possible to apply the smooth text function to text characters that
have been converted into a smooth text already. Neither the text itself
nor the transformation defined by the paths can be corrected once you
have filled the smooth text with a color.
Smooth Text Adjusting to Single Line
If text paths and one single line are active when you click , the text is
automatically drawn on the line, i.e., the line becomes the baseline of the
text. If the text is longer than the line, it will be scaled so that it fits exactly
on the line. You can transform the smooth text using the options of the
SMOOTH TEXT toolbar. They are explained below.
Distortion
Use this option to toggle between absolute and relative distortion.
Relative
With this setting the text is distorted as a
whole, i.e., the ratio between characters as
well as ascenders and descenders are maintained.
Absolute
With this setting each character is distorted
separately, i.e., the ratio between the characters
as well as ascenders and descenders are
ignored.
