Text Layout Controls
Use the Text Layout controls to specify general “layout” of your text. These controls
allow you to make text flow in a single line, in a paragraph with set margins, or on a
path.
Layout Method: Specifies whether the text layout is set to Type, Paragraph, or Path.
The default Layout Method is Type, which creates a single line of text.
Alignment: Sets the alignment of the lines of text. The alignment choices are Left,
Center, and Right.
Justification: Sets the justification of the lines of text. The justification choices are
None, Partial, and Full.
Line Spacing: Specifies the distance between each line of text (leading) in point-sized
increments. Dragging to the right (above 0) increases the line spacing and dragging to
the left (below 0) creates negative line spacing.
