For details on entering text, refer to “Text Input Mode” (page 127).
NOTE:
The settings for
Font Style and Script may differ depending on the TrueType font that is selected.
NOTE:
If text created from multiple TrueType fonts is selected, this dialog cannot be displayed.
In addition, if text of the same font but different font styles or scripts is selected, this dialog appears
with the attribute settings for the first letter in the text.
In either case mentioned above, selecting only one character from within text displays a dialog
containing only that character’s attributes.
