SPECIFYING A FONT

ABOUT FONTS

A font is a single typeface in a particular size and orientation. In Deko500, the
current font and the current look make up the current style.
Deko500 supports alphabet-based fonts as well as fonts of several ideographic
languages. For the following langua ges, you must install the local versio n of
Windows NT: Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, and Thai.
The preceding Composing Text chapter described how to select and manipulate
a font interactively. This section describes howto use the controls in the
Style/Font Window to change the attributes of the current font.

create a Custom Typeface.

Use the text bar to choose the current typeface, size, bold,
italic and justification rules.
Use the Style/Font Window to control all aspects of the
current font.
