Vertical Type Tool (Video Included)

The Vertical Type Tool creates and edits vector-based text in a separate layer:

• In the Toolbox, select the Vertical Type Tool.
• Set on the Options bar font options: family (style), size, color and anti-aliasing method*.
• Click on the image and type.
• While you are typing, the cursor looks like this , so you can adjust typed text position without changing the tool.
• To edit previously typed text, select in the Layers palette corresponding type layer and work like with conventional text editors.

* More type options are available on Character (drop-down menu: Window > Character) and Paragraph ( Window > Paragraph) palettes.
