What is an illustrator cs4 bold text?

Hi,

Illustrator CS4 bold features are not as flexible as Microsoft's. In that case, it needs additional references to be able to provide the bold feature in any type of font. To do this, the font has to be installed in the font folder of the illustrator. Copy the fonts from Windows and paste them in Common Files—->Adobe—->Fonts.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

What is an illustrator cs4 bold text?

Hi Patricia K Walsh,

Yes, that's exactly what it is, a plug-in for Adobe Illustrator. If you want to know why this appears to be a separate feature, here are a few reasons:

1. Illustrator, unlike Microsoft Office programs for example, only uses fonts as they are.

2. That means, basically, that Illustrator does not simulate qualities in fonts, like boldness, which Office programs do by adding thickness in the display.

3. This is why a plug-in is needed to use the bold function on fonts.

Hope this helps.

What is an illustrator cs4 bold text?

A bold text or bold font, in any application not just Adobe Illustrator, is any text that is darkened to help emphasize a comment or remark. It is basically used to highlight or put emphasis on a particular word, sets of words, or sentence. The bold feature is available in any font you want to use.

In Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop, you can also adjust the size of the font aside from applying bold on the text. You can make the text smaller or bigger by entering a value in the font size. Aside from bold, you can also apply italics and underline on your text to further add emphasis on the message.
