The various text styles that you need can be created as types. There is no
dialog box for text settings, so to create the styles you want, you should start
byaccessing theproperties ofthedefault type and duplicating them foreach
type. This is done by clicking the small arrow located on the Text panel of
the Annotate tab, shown in

Accessing the type properties of the text system family
To create a new text type, duplicate an existing type and provide a name
for your creation. It is a common practice to name text types by using the
size and name of the font applied to the type. The type properties allow
you to set the behavior and general appearance of the text type. Another
common naming convention is to indicate what the type is going to be used
for—Normal Notes, Bold Heading, Standard Heading, and so forth.
