Changing Fonts
A
font
is a collection of alphanumeric characters that share the same typeface, or design,
and have similar characteristics. With the Character panel, you can change the font family
(Arial or Times New Roman) and style (Italic, Bold, or Condensed), as well as change
other type attributes, such as size, kerning, scale, tracking, leading, and language. You can
also change these and other attributes by using the Type menu and Control panel. You can
access the Character panel from the Window menu and the Control panel. As you can see,
there are several ways to change font attributes. You can use any one of them. We'll focus
on the Character panel. If you want to know which fonts are currently being used in your
document or find/change a font in your document, the Find Font dialog box can help you
do the job.
Change Font Family and Style
Select any type tool, and then select the type that you want to change.
