Working with text

Use PhotoSuite to add text to a photo or a project (for example, to create
holiday greeting cards from personal photos).
To add text:
1 In the Enhance Your Photos pane, click Add or Edit Text.
The Add or Edit Text dialog box appears and a new text object appears
on the Canvas, with the text, "Type your text here!" A thumbnail
representing the text object appears in the Object List. (To view the
object list when it is not displayed, select View > Object List.)
2
Type your new text in the Add or Edit Text dialog box.
Tip: To add another text object, click Add a new text object.
To change the font and alignment of text:
1
Select the text object in the Canvas or in the Object List.
2 In the Enhance Your Photos pane, click Add or Edit Text.
3
To change the font, select a new font from the drop-down list.
4
Select the horizontal justification (left, centered, or right).
5
Apply styles to the text (bold, italic, or underlined).

Adjust the text size in one of the following ways:
■
■
In the Size box, enter a font size, and in the Horizontal Scaling
box, adjust the font width.
The Horizontal Scaling option changes the proportion of the text
object (that is, the ratio of its height to its width).
In the Canvas, drag the resize handles on the text object to adjust
the size.
