Select the reduction method you want to use in the
To
Fit Text, use
panel.
With fixed-length orientation, lettering is ‘reduced’ to fit
if the baseline is too short to accommodate all letters at
their nominal width and
default
spacing. Various
reduction methods are available:
Spacing
: When selected, letters maintain their
original height and width but reduced spacing if the
baseline length requires it. Letters may even overlap
to fit (negative spacing).
Width
: When selected, letters maintain their original
height and spacing but reduced width if the baseline
length requires it.
Size (keep Proportions)
: When selected, letters
maintain their original spacing and proportions but
reduced size if the baseline length requires it.
Spacing and Width
: When selected, letters maintain
their original height and proportions but width and
spacing are reduced proportionately if the baseline
length requires it.
Spacing and Size (keep Proportions)
: When
selected, letters maintain their original proportions
but reduced size if the baseline length requires it.
Note
With
Fixed Line orientation,
lettering is not
increased if the baseline is longer than needed to fit the
specified lettering.

You can adjust settings at any stage. If you
change baseline length by reshaping lettering or by
changing the
Baseline Length
value, lettering
reduction will be recalculated. The same applies if you
change any lettering attribute which could affect its
length, such as nominal width, nominal height or
number of characters. See
Adjusting orientations
for
details.
