Table Of Contents
Top: In top-aligned text boxes, lines of text are positioned in the box with the
top of the first line positioned as specified in the First Baseline area.
Centered: In center-aligned text boxes, lines of text are centered between the
First Baseline's ascent and the bottom of the text box.
Bottom: In bottom-aligned text boxes, lines of text are positioned with the last
line flush with the bottom of the box.
Justified: In justified text boxes, lines of text are positioned in the box with the
first line positioned as specified in the First Baseline area, the last line flush with
text inset at the bottom of the box, and the remaining lines justified between.
When vertically justifying text, you can specify the maximum vertical distance
between paragraphs.
To use these options:
(Windows only) Choose an option from the Type drop-down menu (Item >
Modify > Text tab > Vertical Alignment area.
(Mac OS X only)Choose an option from the Text Box tab of the Measurements
palette.
The Inter ¶ Max field (available only when Justified is selected in the Type drop-down
menu) lets you specify the amount of space that can be inserted between vertically
justified paragraphs.
The Centered, Bottom, and Justified alignment options are intended only for
rectangular text areas, and can be disrupted by obstructing items.
Specifying text inset
Text inset lets you specify the distance that characters are inset from the inside edge
of a text box. To specify the text inset for an active text box, use the text inset controls:
(Windows only) (Item > Modify > Text tab > Text Inset area)
(Mac OS X only) Use the Text Box tab of the Measurement palette.
To specify the same inset for all four sides, leave Multiple Insets unchecked and then
enter a number in the All Edges field. To specify different insets for the four sides,
check Multiple Insets and then enter numbers in the Top, Left, Bottom, and Right
fields.
Controlling font usage
To view and replace fonts, display the Fonts pane of the Usage dialog box (Utilities
menu). This pane lists all fonts used in the active project. To replace every occurrence
of a font, select the font name, click Replace, and choose a replacement font.
If a font is listed in the Fonts tab (Utilities > Usage) as [Name of Font] preceded by
a negative number, the system you are using does not have that font installed. When
this occurs, you can install the necessary font and reopen the document, or you can
use the Usage command to locate occurrences of the font and apply a different font.
