Attributes

There are five different attributes which you can apply to your typeface singly or in combination. They are:

To add any of these to a style:

  1. Click on the on/off switch to the left of the attributes icon.
  2. The attribute button will be illuminated and appear to have been pressed.
  3. The attribute is now turned on.

If an attribute is set in one style, you may want to create another style which turns this off, allowing you to remove the attribute. For example, if your main text style is italic, you may want to use plain text for emphasis, and should create a style called Plain, with italics turned off.

To create a style turning off an attribute set in another style, you should:

  1. Add a new style.
  2. Click on the button to the left of the attributes button.
  3. Click on the attribute button so that it is not pressed in.
  4. This style will now turn off the chosen attribute in any text it is applied to.
