User Guide

You can also create a condensed font by scaling the
character 80% horizontally. Condensed versions of a font
are the same height as their counterparts, but are narrower
to fit into a more compact space.
To create a condensed character:
1. Click on the Font Window to make it active, and
then press and hold the mouse button while you
drag through the characters “a” through “e.”
2. Choose “Transform” from the Element menu.
The Transform dialog appears.
As you can see from the screen shots on this page,
Fontographer scales the characters horizontally without
changing their height.
