Hi there. I only have DS7, BUT, isn't there the third slot down that says "slant angle"? (After leter height and letter width? In a message dated 09/24/2009 4:03:52 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, signman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx writes: Don't want to tie up the 'board'...if anyone is out there and available-I am having 'brain fart' here and can't figure out how to 'slant' lettering. I have a line of type (CONSTRUCTION) in a logo, it is on a 'wave' (baseline goes up and down for a 'scroll' in the design. The original has each letter following the curve, but the letters themselves don't 'lean' with to follow the curve-but are slanted 'vertically' (like a parallelogram) so the lettering reads 'straight up and down' but still follows the curve. Make sense? I know in DS 7 I could click on each 'letter' and make it wider, narrower, taller, or shorter or rotate it to turn it...and if I clicked 'something else' I could 'slant' the letter vertically, not horizontally. Can't figure out how to do that in DS9 and I need to get this ready for hats for the morning. It's after hours-door is closed, lights are down...couldn't do a thing all day with it-any distractions and I was dead in the water. This braindead stuff is really getting to me. I know it's right in front of me...but.... if I made sense with my description...just can't think of the word that describes the action I need each letter to do... help! Roland R.
