Create tab stops in titles

When you create text using the Horizontal Area Type or Vertical Area Type tools, you can apply tabs in much the
same way as you would in a word-processing program. Tabs are especially useful in creating professional-looking
rolling credits. You can set multiple tabs within a text box and press the Tab key to move the cursor to the next
available tab stop. You can specify a different justification option at each tab stop.

Note: Tabs work exclusively to align the characters within text objects. To align entire text or graphic objects, use the
Align command.
