Chapter Lessons
• Learn about type and how it is created• Change spacing and adjust baseline shift• Use the Drop Shadow style• Apply anti-aliasing to type• Modify type with the Bevel and Emboss and 3D Extrusion• Apply special effects to type using filters• Create text on a path
![Page 3: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Understanding Type
• In Photoshop, the term type refers to text• Use type to express ideas displayed in imagery
or to display an additional message• Modify type by using different typefaces and
colors
![Page 4: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Using Type
• Type is used sparingly in Photoshop images to deliver short messages
• Type should be concise and easy-to-read• Imagery that accompanies type should
complement and reinforce the message conveyed by the type
![Page 5: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Appearance of Type
• Modify type by changing:– Font– Size– Color
• Apply special effects that make type pop off the page
![Page 6: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Learn about Type
• Outline type:– Can be scaled to any size without losing clarity
• Bitmap type:– Composed of pixels– Develops jagged edges when enlarged
![Page 7: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Using Type Types
• Type created in Photoshop is initially Outline type
• Outline type is then converted into Bitmap type when filters are applied
![Page 8: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Creating Type
• Use Type tools and the options bar to create horizontal or vertical type
• Use the options bar to modify the font size and alignment of type
• Use the Color Picker dialog box to change type color

Location of Type
• Type created in Photoshop is automatically placed on a new type layer on the Layers panel
![Page 10: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Font Families
• Each font family represents a complete set of characters, letters, and symbols for each type face
• Three font family categories:– Serif– Sans Serif– Symbol

Type Size
• Character size within a font is measured in points• PostScript measurements:
– 1 inch = 72 points or 6 picas– 1 pica = 12 points
• Traditional measurements:– 1 inch = 72.27 points

![Page 18: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Change Spacing & Adjust Baseline Shift
• Make finite adjustments to the space between characters and between lines of type
• These adjustments are called type spacing• Type spacing affects the ease with which
words are read
![Page 19: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Spacing Terms
• Monotype spacing• Proportional spacing• Kerning• Tracking • Leading
![Page 20: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Monotype Spacing
• Used by typewriters• Each character occupies the same amount of
space• For example, “o” and “w” take the same space
as “i” and “l”

Proportional Spacing
• Used in desktop publishing and word processing
• Each character takes up a different amount of space, depending on its width
![Page 22: Chapter 6 Placing Type in an Image. Chapter Lessons Learn about type and how it is created Change spacing and adjust baseline shift Use the Drop Shadow.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d935503460f94a7aad3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Applying Special Effects with Filters
• Filters can be applied to a type layer• The type layer must first be rasterized:
converted to an image layer• After rasterizing, the type layer cannot be
edited for type content
