Changing font family and font style
In this section, you'll learn two different methods for selecting a font. First, you'll change the
font of selected text using the Font menu in the Control panel.
Note
You may see the word “Character” instead of the Font menu listed in the
Control panel. Click the word “Character” to reveal the Character panel.
1. Choose 1 Flyer from the Artboard Navigation menu in the lower-left corner of the
Document window.
2. Select the Zoom tool ( ) in the Tools panel, and click twice, slowly, in the center of
the main threaded text object.
Tip
If you double-click text with the Selection or Direct Selection tool, the Type
tool becomes selected.
3. Select the Type tool ( ) in the Tools panel, and position the pointer over the text.
When the pointer changes to ( ), click to insert the cursor in the text. Choose Select >
All, or press Ctrl+A (Windows) or Command+A (Mac OS), to select all the text in
both threaded text objects.
If you miss the text, you will create point type. Choose Edit > Undo Type, if that's the
case, and try again.
Note
You most likely will need to use the scrollbar to the right of the font list to
scroll through the list.
4. Click the arrow to the right of the Font menu, and scroll to find Myriad Pro. It may
already be highlighted in the list.
5. Click the arrow to the left of Myriad Pro in the menu, and choose Semibold.
This sets the Font Family to Myriad Pro and the Font Style to Semibold for all of the
threaded text.
