Adjusting spacingYou can precisely control the way in which Photoshop and ImageReady space letters and words and scale characters. Adjusting spacing options is especially useful when working with justified type, although you can also adjust spacing for unjustified type. Word spacing refers to the space between words that is created by pressing the spacebar. Letter spacing refers to the distance between letters and includes kerning or tracking values. Glyph spacing refers to the width of characters (a glyph is any font character). Spacing options are always applied to an entire paragraph. To adjust the spacing in a few characters but not an entire paragraph, use the Tracking option. To set justification options:
Word Spacing values can range from 0% to 1000%; at 100%, no additional space is added between words. Letter Spacing values can range from -100% to 500%; at 0%, no space is added between letters. Glyph Spacing values can range from 50% to 200%; at 100%, the width of characters is not scaled. |
