Typography panel
The Typography panel allows you to tailor fonts so they are exactly right for the
project at hand. Controllable features include ligatures, style variations, kerning,
number spacing, fraction rendering, swashes, number and letter case, and more.
You access the Typography panel from the Action menu in the lower-left corner
of the Font panel. This panel changes depending on the font you’ve selected in
the Font panel.
