Memo:
• Vertical text will be displayed in vertically
on the Design Page.
• Both Kerning and Character Spacing set
the spacing between characters.
Character Spacing is always applied to
the entire text pattern, while Kerning can
be applied to individual characters.
Applying Kerning to the entire text in the
pattern is the same as specifying
Character Spacing. Refer to "Selecting
characters" on page 157 for more details
about selecting individual characters in a
text pattern.
