Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 598 Center-stroking letters in Illustrator, part of Deke's Techniques.
- Hey gang this is Deke McClelland,…welcome to Deke's Techniques.…Now, every so often, we receive a request…for this weekly distraction,…in fact, right now I'm sitting on…a fair backlog of em,…but don't be discouraged, keep em coming.…This one, for example, comes to us…from member Peter Weatherbee,…it's two years old now, the request,…and he was wondering how to create…these center strokes inside the…red letters White Christmas.…And, even though it's taken me awhile to respond,…I'm finding this so fascinating…that I'll be devoting five episodes…to the topic over three weeks.…
And so, what this is called,…it's called an inline font style.…So what we're seeing here is a font…called Pompeia Inline from the Adobe Library.…Or you can go to FontSpace, for example,…and search for inline fonts, there's a ton of em there.…And so you can download those guys…and play around with them if you like.…Or, you can apply a kind of…cheesy effect inside Illustrator.…It's very easy to pull off.…Notice the three steps in the top left corner here.…
