USING ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR CS4

Type

Type Optimized (Hinted) Applies anti-aliasing that is best suited to type. Anti-aliasing reduces the appearance of

jagged edges in the rasterized image and gives type a smoother on-screen appearance. However, it can also make small

text difficult to read.

Creating superscripts or subscripts

Superscript and subscript text (also called superior and inferior text) is reduced-size text that is raised or lowered in

relation to a font’s baseline.

When you create superscript or subscript type, Illustrator applies a predefined baseline shift value and typeface size.

The values applied are percentages of the current font size and leading, and are based on settings in the Type section

of the Document Setup dialog box.

Create superscripts or subscripts in regular fonts

1 Select the type you want to change. If you don’t select any type, any new text you create will be rendered as

superscripts or subscripts.

2 Choose Superscript or Subscript from the Character panel menu.

Create superscripts or subscripts in OpenType fonts

1 Select the characters you want to change to superscript or subscript. If you don’t select any text, the setting applies

to new text you create.

2 Make sure that an OpenType font is selected. One way to determine if a font is an OpenType font is to look in the

Type

> Font menu; OpenType fonts display the icon.

3 In the OpenType panel, choose an option from the Position pop-up menu:

Default Position Uses the default position for the current font.

Superscript/Superior Uses raised characters (if available in the current font).

Subscript/Inferior Uses lowered characters (if available in the current font).

Numerator Uses characters designed as fraction numerators (if available in the current font).

Denominator Uses characters designed as fraction denominators (if available in the current font).

Change the size and position of superscripts or subscripts

❖ Choose File > Document Setup, specify the following values for Superscript and Subscript, and then click OK:

• For Size, type a percentage of the font size for superscripted and subscripted text.

• For Position, type a percentage of the regular leading to specify how much the superscript and subscript text will

move.

Convert type to outlines

You can turn type into a set of compound paths, or outlines, that you can edit and manipulate as you would any other

graphic object. Type as outlines are useful for changing the look of large display type, but they are rarely useful for body

text or other type at small sizes.
