Aligning text
CorelDRAW lets you align text in various ways. You can align paragraph text horizontally and vertically in relation to its text frame. You can
align paragraph text with the baseline grid. For more information, see “Aligning text by using the baseline grid” on page 391. You can also
align text to a selected object.
You can align a text object with other objects by using the baseline of
the first line, the baseline of the last line, or the edge of the text frame.
Artistic text can be aligned horizontally, but not vertically. When you align artistic text, the entire text object is aligned in relation to the
bounding box. If characters have not been shifted horizontally, applying no alignment produces the same result as applying left alignment.
Artistic text is aligned within the bounding box, which is indicated by eight selection handles
(black squares). The text at the top is left-aligned; the text at the bottom is right-aligned.
