Type Tool

Use the Type tool to create either:

• Point text: a single line of text;
• Area text: text confined within a defined area.

Typography Settings:

• Font Name/Typeface: select from all fonts or specific collections (e.g., Google Fonts);
• Font Weight: adjust the thickness of the font;
• Font Style: apply styles like italic;
• Font Size: change the size of the text;
• Line Height (Leading): adjust spacing between lines of text;
• Letter Spacing (Tracking): modify spacing between characters.

You've also got some alignment options for paragraphs (left, center, right, etc.).

Advanced Text Settings:

Some advanced text settings can be accessed through a popup window with a Preview box. The window usually has three tabs:

• Basics Tab: to apply further font changes. Bullet points and numbering options are also available;
• Details Tab: offers advanced settings for characters, numbers, and more;
• Variable Tab: allows manual adjustments to slant, italic styles, and font weight (availability depends on the font).

Just remember, when you want to apply any font changes, always ensure the text is highlighted or selected from the layers panel.
