How do i add a font style in illustrator cs3?

Question

pls help...tnx

Answer 1

Do you mean a character style?

Go to Window->Type->Character Styles

In this pallet you can either:

1. Click the "Create New Style" button next to the trash can, double click the "Character Style #" and set your font, size, etc. in the dialog box that pops up or

2. Select a text box with the font, size, etc. you want already formatted and just click the "Create New Style" button and Illustrator will make a new one that matches whatever text box was selected at the time.

If you need more help, search for "Character Style" in the Illustrator help file or at adobe.com.

Answer 2

It depends if you're using Mac or Windows. If you download afont from a place like www.dafonts.com then when you open it, it should apply to the Fonts folder for you.

If you look in the Control Panel you'll find them there too in a Fonts folder so try searching on the Control Panel. Drag a font in there and Illustrator should be able to find it itself there when you go to select a text in the program.

Hope I helped :)
