1.

Drag two guides from the left vertical ruler, placing the first one at 2½ inches and the second at 4½ inches.

1.

Double-click the yellow sticky note annotation in the lower right corner of the image window to open it.

NoteYou may need to change the view or scroll to see the open note onscreen.

2.

Drag with the cursor to select all of the text in the note, and then press Ctrl-C (Windows) or Command-C (Mac OS) to copy it to the Clipboard. Then click the Close button to close the sticky note window.

Before you paste it in, specify your type options.

3.

Make sure no layers are selected in the Layers palette. Then select the Horizontal Type tool (), and in the Character palette, choose a sans serif typeface such as Myriad Roman, set the Size to 10 points, Leading to 24 points, Tracking to 5, and Color to black.

Drag with the Type tool to create a text box that matches the guides you positioned in the previous exercise, and then press Ctrl-V (Windows) or Command-V (Mac OS) to paste the text from the Clipboard into the text box.

The text appears in the image window with the styles you specified, and it wraps to the dimensions of the bounding box. In our example, the second-to-last line had some unsightly gaps, so as a fine-tuning measure, we will fix that now.

If you resize the bounding box, the type will reflow within the adjusted rectangle.

6.

Drag with the Horizontal Type tool () to select all of the text in the second-to-last line of the paragraph, and in the Character palette, set Tracking to 60.

Select the letters, and then, in the Character palette, choose a serif typeface such as Adobe Garamond, set it to 8 points, set Tracking to 300, and make the color red.

OpenType in Photoshop: More fun with bottles OpenType is a cross-platform font file format developed jointly by Adobe and Microsoft. It allows the same font to work on both Macintosh and Windows computers, and it supports widely expanded character sets and layout features. This, in turn, provides richer linguistic support and advanced typography control. Photoshop CS2 supports OpenType, and the Adobe Photoshop CS2 Classroom in a Book CD contains a QuickTime movie that explores how to use OpenType in Photoshop in greater depth. Here are some of the highlights. The OpenType menu The Character palette pop-up menu includes an OpenType submenu that displays all available features for a selected OpenType font, including ligatures, alternates, and fractions. Features that are grayed out are unavailable for that typeface; features that are checked have been applied. Discretionary ligatures To add a discretionary ligature to two OpenType letters, such as to a "th" in the Bickham Script Standard typeface, select them in the image window, and choose OpenType > Discretionary Ligatures from the Character palette pop-up menu. If you'd like to preview your OpenType choices before committing to them, work with the Adobe Illustrator CS or CS2 Glyphs palette: Copy your text in Photoshop and paste it into an Illustrator document. Then, open the Glyphs palette by choosing Window > Type > Glyphs. Select the text you want to change, and choose Show > Alternates for Current Selection. Double-click a glyph to apply it, and when you're done, copy and paste the new type into your Photoshop file. [View full size image] [View full size image] Swashes Adding swashes or alternate characters works the same way: Select the letter, such as a capital "T" in Bickham Script, and choose OpenType > Swash to change the ordinary capital into a dramatically ornate swash T. Creating true fractions Type fractions as usualfor example, 1-slash-2then select the characters, and from the Character palette menu, choose OpenType > Fractions. Photoshop applies the true fraction.

5.

Click the Commit Any Current Edits button () on the tool options bar. Your vertical text now appears as the layer named PRODUCT OF ITALY. Use the Move tool () and drag to center it if necessary.

Now, you'll do a bit of clean up.

6.

Click to select the annotation, and then right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) and choose Delete Note from the contextual menu to delete the annotation.

7.

Hide the guides by choosing the Hand tool () and then pressing Ctrl-; (Windows) or Command-; (Mac OS). Then, zoom out to get a nice look at your handiwork.
