Text & typography

Add and style text — text frames, fonts and the Font Book, formatting, styles, columns and print-grade type.

A print-grade type engine lives behind every text frame. Start with the basics of adding and styling text, then go deeper into fonts, styles and typographic controls.

Adding & editing text Add text in Popcorn Editor with the Text tool, then control how each frame resizes — auto width, auto height or a fixed box — and what happens when text overflows.

Fonts & the Font Book Change a font, browse and search the Font Book, shortlist favorites, upload your own font files, and use your system fonts in Popcorn Editor.

Character & paragraph formatting Format type in Popcorn Editor — size, weight, OpenType features, color, tracking, alignment, line height, indents and lists — at the character or paragraph level.

Paragraph & character styles Create named paragraph and character styles in Popcorn Editor, apply them across a design, redefine one style to update every use, and manage them in the style panels.

Columns & threading text Split a text frame into columns with a gutter, or thread one story across several linked frames — and handle overset text cleanly along the way.
