Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 580 Symbols and spaces in Illustrator CC 2017, part of Deke's Techniques.
- Hey, gang.…This is Deke McClelland.…Welcome to Deke's Techniques.…Now, way back in the ancient days,…Apple and Adobe conspired to give us…access to specialty characters.…Things like the bullet and the copyright symbol,…the em dash, and so forth, and then some program…came along, Ready, Set, Go! or PageMaker,…and gave us fixed width spaces.…Well, fast forward to the present day,…and Illustrator CC 2017 has finally kind of caught up.…And so, even though you've been able to enter…a bullet forever, now we have menu commands…and customizable keyboard shortcuts.…
Now, this is a very minor feature indeed,…so minor that Justin Seeley did not cover it…in his new features course.…I'm not judging him, he just didn't do it,…and I'm not covering it in my one-on-one courses.…Not judging me, I just didn't do it,…but I figure somebody's got to cover it,…and so, why don't we cover it right now.…Now a quick note for those of you who may feel…like opening this document.…I set the text in the font Rosario,…which is currently available from Typekit…
