Changing the font size
There are several ways to change the font size:
Type a new value into the size text box on the InfoBar and press ¿.
Or select from the Font size drop-down list on the InfoBar.
Or use the Font size pop-up slider.
Or manually increase/decrease font size with the "Ctrl + Shift + >" and "Ctrl + Shift + <"
keyboard shortcuts. This applies only if all selected text parts are of the same font size.
Or use the Selector Tool to scale the whole text object.
Bold & Italic
Click the Bold or Italic
button on the InfoBar ("Ctrl + B" or "Ctrl + I")
This applies the bold or italic variant of the current font.
Attention: Xara Web Designer 7 Premium does not allow you to apply italic or bold to text if the
necessary italic/bold font is not installed. However you can easily emulate the same effect. To embolden a
font, just give it a small line width and apply a line color. To slant a font, use the skew / slant feature of
the Selector Tool
. Read more in the "Font menu" section
Text Underlining
Click the underline button on the InfoBar to apply an underline
to the selected text.
The underline color and size is automatically derived from the text color and size.
Justification or text alignment
Justification always applies to the complete line. Any selected region is ignored.
Left
justification: Align the left-hand edge of the text to the initial click
position.
Center
justification: Centers the text around the click position.
Right
justification: Align the right-hand edge of the text to the initial click
position.
Full
justification: This only applies when text is along a curve or in a column
and when there is at least one full line of text to justify.
When using simple text the initial click position
on the page is taken as the origin for text justification.
Indents and Outdents
Indent a paragraph of text.
