Use swashes, titling alternates, or stylistic alternates
Many OpenType fonts include stylized characters that let you add decorative elements to type. Swashes are characters
with exaggerated flourishes. Titling alternates are characters (usually all in capitals) designed for use in large-size
settings, such as titles. Stylistic alternates are stylized characters that create a purely esthetic effect.
1 Select the characters or type objects to which you want to apply the setting. If you don’t select any text, the setting
applies to new text you create.
2 Make sure that an OpenType font is selected.
