A font is a single typeface in a particular size and orientation. In FXDeko, the
current font and the current look make up the current style.

The preceding Composing Text chapter described how to select and manipulate
a font interactively. This section describes how to use the controls in the
Style/Font Window to change the attributes of the current font.

Later sections describe how to install TrueType or Postscript fonts and how to
create a Custom Typeface.

To change the attributes of the current font:

Do one of the following:

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.
