Optionally, you can specify a child (an element inside the Box or Div) by giving its ID, for
example: #product, or class, for example: .product - note the dot. The Copy Fit feature
will only be applied to this child element.
Tip
To give an element a class or ID, select it and add the class or ID on the Attributes
pane. An ID is meant to be used once in each section, while a class can be shared
between several elements.

Click Apply or OK. Note that the effect of the Copy Fit feature can only be seen in
Preview mode.
If it is impossible to make a text fit within the box with the given minimum and maximum font
size, this will be reported as an error during a preflight (see "Testing scripts" on page632).
How it works
When the Copy Fit feature is activated, the font size is calculated for the entire Box. Elements
inside that Box get a font size relative to the Box. This means that their relative proportions are
maintained.
How to position elements
To position elements in relation to each other in a template, wrap those elements in a Table or
Box (see "Table" on page542 and "Boxes" on page513) and/or use the Spacing property of
the elements. The Spacing property can also be used to indent elements or create a hanging
paragraph or image; see "Spacing" on page591. Guides help to align elements as well; see
below.
Where to use Tables and Boxes
Tables, Positioned Boxes and Inline Boxes can help position elements in relation to other
elements. It depends on the context which element is best to use.
In the Email context, Tables are the most reliable way to position text and images; see
"Designing an Email template" on page361 and "Table" on page542.
