Meenie50 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 When I create a Title on my project (a book cover), I can click on "character" to change the size etc. But how can I do this to only one letter? I want to enlarge the First Letter of each word, but if I use a select tool to select only that letter, the character items don't work. I tried just selecting the letter, then clicking on "move" but only the selection box changes size, not the letter? Obviously I'm missing something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v_kyr Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Use the text tool you've choosed to write the text and select with that the whole word, or just a certain letter of the text etc. See also: Working with text (in the online help) Artistic Text Frame text ...etc...

Meenie50 Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 Great, that sort of worked I can enlarge the first letter, but I wanted to enlarge it so part of it was below the other text and part above, does that make sense?
