Text
• Import text power!
Add word processing content to any text frame—Word 2007 (and
earlier versions), Open Office, Rich Text Format, PagePlus's
WritePlus, and many more text formats.
• Text Frames
Compose story text in text frames then easily position, rotate or size
the frame to suit; connected frames host the same story text and can be
filled automatically by AutoFlow or manual text fitting. Enhanced
text wrap options and separate crop and wrap outlines mean you have
greater control over where text flows and how it appears. Import,
paste, export text in Unicode format... design with a foreign-language
or special fonts and characters. Text paths also benefit from intelligent
text fitting.
• Anchor any object
Anchor pictures, shapes, tables, artistic text, and nested text frames
to your publication's artistic or frame text. Position horizontally and
vertically in relation to anchor point, indented text, column, frame,
page margin guides, or the whole page. Flow text around floating
objects in your text frame.
• Text Control
Apply text formatting from an on-hand text context toolbar; apply
multi-level bullet and numbering schemas to your paragraphs, even
to your text styles; a Text Styles tab for allocating text attributes to
chosen paragraphs; flexible bullet, numbering and indenting buttons;
and much more!
• Fonts
Substitute missing fonts when opening third-party publications or
PDFs. View your currently installed font set in the Fonts tab,
including those most recently assigned to text, favourite fonts, and
those considered Websafe. Hover over a listed font for an "in-situ"
font preview of your selected text—simply click to apply the new
font if you like it! Easily swap all selected instances of a common font
for another font in one fell swoop!
