Line Spacing: This control lets you set line spacing for a text object. 1.0 means single-spaced
text; 2.0 means double-spaced text, etc.

Extra Indentation: These controls let you specify extra text indentation on a per-paragraph
level. If your text is left-justified, the extra indentation will be on the left; if your text is right-
justified, the extra justification will be on the right; if your text is centered, extra indentation
doesn't apply and these controls will be disabled.

1st Line (cm): Lets you specify, in centimeters, extra indentation for the first line of every
paragraph.

Other Lines (cm): Lets you specify, in centimeters, extra indentation for all non-first lines of
paragraphs.

Text Properties Dialog "Curving" Page



This page lets you make your text curved (or not), and lets you set various properties for how
curved text should behave.

Text Curving:

Straight: With this setting, your text will display in a straight line. Since most of the other
options on this page all relate to curved text, they'll be disabled if you've selected the straight-
text setting.

Curved: With this setting, your text will display in a circle (or an ellipse, to be more exact).

Spiral: With this setting, you text will display in a spiral.

Fit Curve to Label: If you check this box, the ellipse that your curve follows will automatically
be centered on the label and will have the same aspect ratio as the label. It's the default
option. Check this box if you want your text to curve around the edges of the label. If you
uncheck this box, your text will fit itself to the bounding rectangle of your text object, and you
can resize the text object to change the dimensions of the ellipse that your text follows.

Curve Direction:

Clockwise: Curved text will circle your label in a clockwise direction.
