Changing fonts and type styles
Changing the fonts and type styles of text can make a dramatic difference in the appearance
of your document. Here, you'll change the font family, type style, size, and leading for
the text in the pull quote on the right-facing page. In addition, you will insert “alternate
glyphs”—fancier characters—available in the OpenType font in use. You'll make these
changes in the Character panel and the Glyphs panel.
