Working with text 6
Corel Grafigo lets you annotate documents by adding text. When you are working
with text in Corel Grafigo, you are actually working with typed text in a text frame,
not the writing strokes you make with the tablet pen. You can always add words in
ink; however, if you don’t convert them into text, Corel Grafigo will interpret them as
drawing strokes, and not as text.
In this section, you’ll learn about
• managing text frames
• adding, selecting, and deleting text
• converting ink into text
• editing text
• changing the recognized language
Managing text frames
When adding text, you must first create a text frame. By default, text frames remain
the size you create them regardless of how much text you add. Text frames have vertical
scroll bars that allow you to scroll through the text you add.
Before you can resize or move a text frame, you need to select it. Corel Grafigo provides
different tools for selecting text frames. The Te x t tool allows you to add text to a text
frame, edit it, and move a text frame within the same layer. The Pick selector and Lasso
selector allow you to move a text frame between layers. For information about layers,
see “Understanding layers” on page 31.
You can change the size of a text frame.
You can move a frame to a new location in the workspace.
You can save a text frame for reuse later on. For information about creating reusable
content, see “To add content to a category” on page 64.
If you don’t need a text frame, you can delete it.
To insert a text frame
