CHAPTER 6
Using Text
Macromedia Fireworks 8 has many text features typically reserved for sophisticated desktop
publishing applications. You can create text in a variety of fonts and sizes and adjust kerning,
spacing, color, leading, baseline shift, and more. Combining Fireworks text-editing features
with the wide range of strokes, fills, filters, and styles makes text a lively element of your
graphic designs. You can also use the Fireworks spell-checker to correct misspellings.
When you create a text object, Fireworks automatically saves the object under a name that
matches the text content, making it easier to locate later. If you prefer a different name for
that text object, you can easily change the automatically assigned name.
The capability to edit text anytime—even after you apply Live Filters such as drop shadows
and bevels—means you can easily make changes to text. You can also copy objects that
include text and change the text for each copy. Vertical text, transformed text, text attached to
paths, and text converted to paths and images extend the design possibilities.
You can import text while retaining rich text format attributes. Also, when you import a
Photoshop document containing text, the text remains editable. Fireworks handles missing
fonts upon import by asking you to select a substitute font or allowing you to import text as
a static image.
