- [Instructor] So now we've got some type in our document,…let's have a look at some of the options we have for it.…Now if I go the window menu and choose type,…you'll see there are a bunch of different panels.…Essentially what we're going to look at here…are the character and paragraph panels.…But I'm going to do them from the properties inspector…because it gives me access to all of that good stuff…without me having extra windows open.…So if I select my point type from here to begin with…I can change some things about that,…just by moving down into the character segment just here,…so if I wanted to choose a different typeface for this…I could click and of course I could filter this down…via various different things,…so if I want something that is maybe decorative…it will go through the things in stored on my system…that meet that criteria,…and I could also filter for type kit at the same time,…so maybe if I wanted Cheloops bold,…I do really like that typeface, it is good fun,…but do you know what, I might even choose that,…
