Chapter 4 Formatting Text and Paragraphs 81
You can change the appearance of any text in your document by selecting it and then
selecting options in the Font panel. When you make formatting changes in the Font
panel, the selected text changes right away, so you can try different formatting
options and quickly see what looks best.
Here is a summary of what the text effects buttons do, from left to right:
 The Text Underline pop-up menu lets you choose an underline style (such as single
or double).
 The Text Strikethrough pop-up menu lets you choose a strikethrough style (such as
single or double).
 The Text Color pop-up menu lets you apply a color to text.
 The Document Color pop-up menu lets you apply a color behind a paragraph.
 The Text Shadow button applies a shadow to selected text.
 The Shadow Opacity, Shadow Blur, Shadow Offset, and Shadow Angle controls
control the appearance of the shadow.
To change the look and size of text:
1 In the Font panel, select a font style in the Family column and then select the typeface
in the Typeface column.
If you don't see all the font families you know are installed on your computer, select
All Fonts in the Collections column or type the name of the font you are looking for in
the search field at the bottom of the Font panel.
A preview of the selected font appears in the preview pane at the top of the Font
panel. If you don't see a preview pane, choose Show Preview from the Action pop-up
menu in the lower-left corner of the Font panel.
2 Adjust the font size using the size slider or other size controls.
3 Adjust the typography settings of the selected font by choosing Typography from the
Action pop-up menu. In the Typography window, click the disclosure triangles to see
and select the different typography effects that are available for the selected font.
Different fonts have different typography effects available. See “Using Advanced
Typography Features” on page 87 for more information.
To quickly locate fonts you frequently use:
m Organize the fonts you use often into font collections by clicking the Add (+) button
to create a font collection, and then dragging a typeface into the new collection.
