ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR REVIEWED
QUESTIONS AND ANSWER

Name two methods for creating a text area in Adobe Illustrator.
- ANSWER-The following methods can be used for creating
text areas: With the Type tool, click the artboard and start
typing when the cursor appears. A text area is created to
accommodate the text.
With the Type tool, drag to create a text area. Type when a
cursor appears.
With the Type tool, click a path or closed shape to convert it to
text on a path or in a text area. Alt-clicking (Windows) or
Option-clicking (Mac OS) when crossing over the stroke of a
closed path creates text around the shape.

What are two benefits of using an OpenType font? - ANSWER-
The two main benefits of OpenType fonts are cross-platform
compatibility (they work the same on both Windows and Mac
OS) and support of widely expanded character sets and layout
features, which provide richer linguistic support and advanced
typographic control.

What is the difference between a character style and a
paragraph style? - ANSWER-A character style can be applied
to selected text only. A paragraph style is applied to an entire
paragraph. Paragraph styles are best for indents, margins, and
line spacing.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of converting text
to outlines? - ANSWER-Converting type to outlines eliminates
the need to send the fonts along with the file when sharing with
others. You can also fill the type with a gradient and create

, interesting effects on individual letters. However, when you
create outlines from text, you should consider the following:
Text is no longer editable. The content and font cannot be
changed for outlined text. It is best to save a layer with the
original text or to use the Outline Object effect.
Bitmap fonts and outline-protected fonts cannot be converted to
outlines.
Outlining text that is less than 10 points in size is not
recommended. When type is converted to outlines, the type
loses its hints—instructions built into outline fonts to adjust their
shape to display or print optimally at many sizes. When scaling
type, adjust its point size before converting it to outlines.
You must convert all type in a selection to outlines; you cannot
convert a single letter within a string of type. To convert a single
letter into an outline, create a separate type area containing
only that letter.

Name two benefits of using layers when creating artwork. -
ANSWER-The benefits of using layers when creating artwork
include: protecting artwork that you don't want to change,
hiding artwork that you aren't working with so that it's not
distracting, and controlling what prints.

How do you hide layers? How do you show individual layers? -
ANSWER-To hide a layer, click to deselect the eye icon to the
left of the layer name in the Layers panel. Select the blank,
leftmost column (the Visibility column) to show a layer.

Describe how to reorder layers in a file. - ANSWER-You
reorder layers by selecting a layer name in the Layers panel
and dragging the layer to its new location. The order of layers in
the Layers panel controls the document's layer order—topmost
in the panel is front-most in the artwork.

What is the purpose of changing the selection color for a layer?
- ANSWER-The selection color controls how selected anchor
