Set font, style, and size
Some object properties—such as fill color, shadow, and so on—are common to all objects you create, while other
properties are unique to text objects. You can find text controls such as font, font style, and type alignment, in the Tasks
panel, the Title menu, and the pop-up menu that appears when you right-click a box in the Monitor panel. Other
options are available in the Color Properties dialog box and Title menu.
