Operation:

Click

Text

, then

Text Attribute Setting

.

The

Text Attribute Setting

dialog displays.

Note that both

Kerning

and

Character Spacing

set the spacing between characters. The difference is

that

Character Spacing

is always applied to the entire text pattern, while

Kerning

can be applied to

individual characters. If you apply

Kerning

to the entire text pattern, it works exactly like

Character

Spacing

. See “Selecting characters on a text pattern” on page 100 for more details about selecting

individual characters in a text pattern.
