WEBVTT 00:00.140 --> 00:04.610 OK so we're in the type Hunger-Free section and we get to do lots of tips and tricks and this video 00:04.620 --> 00:08.060 just like lots of little stuff that will help your workflow. 00:08.370 --> 00:13.490 And let's start with wrapping up the character Penno just because we can use whenever here on the side 00:13.500 --> 00:17.390 but it's just easier for the moment to have a separate panel go. 00:17.520 --> 00:20.570 So what I'm looking to do is this font here at the top here. 00:20.580 --> 00:22.210 I want to change. 00:22.340 --> 00:22.890 OK. 00:22.980 --> 00:27.610 So some of the nice things you can do is up the top here when I dropped down. 00:27.810 --> 00:30.110 OK there are some fillers on the top here. 00:30.120 --> 00:33.480 I want to change it to something like maybe a slide Sarath. 00:33.660 --> 00:39.310 So what it's going to do is somehow magically it knows all the fonts are in here that are celeb's tariffs. 00:39.360 --> 00:42.060 OK so just really easy to cut these things down. 00:42.120 --> 00:44.730 Case I want to use Henriot font. 00:44.760 --> 00:47.650 You can see I'm just hovering above it and it's updating on the lift there. 00:47.700 --> 00:48.650 Super handy. 00:48.780 --> 00:51.220 Makes you turn it off otherwise it stays on forever. 00:51.480 --> 00:53.350 And it looks like you don't have too many fonts. 00:53.370 --> 00:57.900 Favorites is a good one so you are mixing with fonts lots kind of playing around with brands and trying 00:58.010 --> 00:58.660 to fonts. 00:58.680 --> 01:00.370 But there's a few that you use all the time. 01:00.450 --> 01:01.580 You just stop them. 01:01.590 --> 01:04.800 OK so Muzio I use a lot to say let's use last. 01:04.820 --> 01:10.740 It's what you can do is you can come in to here and kind of go into the dropdown and just click on this 01:10.740 --> 01:14.240 option and it just lists your favorites. 01:14.360 --> 01:14.810 OK. 01:14.820 --> 01:18.400 So just a quick way rather than let's go let's go let's go. 01:18.450 --> 01:18.660 OK. 01:18.660 --> 01:23.250 Depending on how many fronts you have right now you want find similar is super handy as well. 01:23.250 --> 01:26.750 And for some reason Muzio can't doesn't work right. 01:26.910 --> 01:28.680 Sunger change just on the last. 01:29.010 --> 01:34.250 And so I'm using lost right and it's a nice big display font. 01:34.260 --> 01:35.670 And but I want to find something else. 01:35.670 --> 01:39.120 OK I've used it too much choice to find something different to open this. 01:39.240 --> 01:41.490 There's an option here this little wavy line is. 01:41.640 --> 01:43.400 Apply similar filter. 01:43.410 --> 01:46.460 So I want you to go and find some fonts to last and you can see here. 01:46.780 --> 01:48.540 Pretty cool it's got some. 01:48.560 --> 01:49.660 Whoa where was that one. 01:49.680 --> 01:50.250 That one. 01:50.250 --> 01:52.340 No you know let of use cause that's bad. 01:52.540 --> 01:55.440 And but yes some good ones in here are that are pretty close. 01:55.440 --> 02:01.030 And so that is quite Sify it doesn't look for them if I click on this guy Muzio and click on some of 02:01.040 --> 02:02.640 the girls can't find anything. 02:02.820 --> 02:05.390 OK so it doesn't 100 percent work. 02:05.400 --> 02:07.200 The next thing is type kit. 02:07.230 --> 02:07.550 OK. 02:07.560 --> 02:13.050 If you're not using it already dropped down and you have to have a pay Creative Cloud subscriber account 02:13.230 --> 02:19.140 click add funds from type kit and I won't cover this too much because you probably are already using 02:19.140 --> 02:20.870 it if you're not you probably can't. 02:21.030 --> 02:26.660 And I always come browse at the top here log in with your Adobe ID and I love you. 02:27.120 --> 02:30.280 An A Let's say I'm going to put my name in there. 02:30.470 --> 02:30.860 OK. 02:30.870 --> 02:36.150 And the cool thing about it is you can decide on what kind of fun you're looking for. 02:36.330 --> 02:42.240 And because it's part of your creative crowd subscription and it allows you to download these guys for 02:42.240 --> 02:49.840 free it's really easy to do say you like this one here you click on it you click sync all and kick back 02:49.840 --> 02:54.530 relax and Kotaro should appear in Illustrator. 02:54.610 --> 02:56.170 You see at the top there there he is. 02:56.310 --> 03:00.890 So now I can say cool Tado areas quite like them. 03:00.960 --> 03:05.200 And what I find quite handy is well up here is that I want to just search by this because it's the ones 03:05.200 --> 03:10.990 that have gone through and like pulled from type kits that's often stuff I've kind of really spent time 03:10.990 --> 03:11.590 trying to find. 03:11.650 --> 03:12.200 Wow. 03:12.560 --> 03:15.030 OK so those are the filters. 03:15.210 --> 03:16.300 It's to them all off. 03:16.300 --> 03:17.350 They stay on. 03:17.380 --> 03:19.380 So you remove it to turn them off when you're finished. 03:19.570 --> 03:25.530 OK the next thing to look at is and to do with open type phones and the ligatures. 03:25.530 --> 03:31.480 So there are some phones in here that have you see Teekay and all those good fonts though they're both 03:31.480 --> 03:32.350 open type fonts. 03:32.350 --> 03:37.870 The top ones all the ones say oh the ones that are not so good are these T.T. ones these old school 03:37.990 --> 03:39.140 true type fonts. 03:39.190 --> 03:42.790 The reason the difference sometimes you've got on your machine right two of the same funny-I. 03:42.820 --> 03:47.790 Why do I have lust and lust gayo lust MT or something else. 03:48.010 --> 03:52.450 Often it's to do with the ligatures and glyphs that come along with the font. 03:52.450 --> 03:56.930 What I mean by that is this font here was designed by a wonderful type designer. 03:56.930 --> 03:57.760 I love this font. 03:57.940 --> 04:03.160 But let's say I want to look at I don't like the way the x is flowery for me. 04:03.160 --> 04:05.400 I'm going to duplicate that a few times. 04:05.980 --> 04:08.610 What I'd like to do is because it's an open type font. 04:08.650 --> 04:10.610 I can see that or type good font. 04:10.750 --> 04:11.210 OK. 04:11.300 --> 04:16.490 T.K. or what I can do is I can highlight a letter and you can see it on the bottom here. 04:16.500 --> 04:18.100 There's alternatives. 04:18.100 --> 04:25.660 OK so it's just you know so the the the type designer type I prefer photographer the word bat that decided 04:25.660 --> 04:28.700 he or she has decided that they've got kind of two options. 04:28.700 --> 04:30.140 That's true of lot of the letters. 04:30.150 --> 04:33.660 OK slicked on it is a big floury version there. 04:33.730 --> 04:34.300 OK. 04:34.390 --> 04:35.690 There's actually two versions of this. 04:35.740 --> 04:37.630 Oh I might choose to use. 04:37.660 --> 04:38.280 OK. 04:38.500 --> 04:43.870 And yet it's a nice way of building up kind of complex looking things and not having to do the courage 04:43.870 --> 04:52.810 to all the with to get even better and say the designer has decided that and you know that if they call 04:52.810 --> 04:54.270 them Stylistics sets. 04:54.280 --> 04:58.120 So they've designed it with all these flowers get all these flourishes. 04:58.270 --> 05:00.320 And what you can do is with it selected. 05:00.420 --> 05:00.890 OK. 05:00.940 --> 05:06.030 We're going to go to this open type if you can't find that it's under a window type open type. 05:06.160 --> 05:08.130 What we want to do is down the bottom here. 05:08.140 --> 05:08.980 This is one called. 05:08.980 --> 05:13.800 So this is the one and you can see the same. 05:13.900 --> 05:14.130 Yes. 05:14.160 --> 05:18.040 So that's that's what the designer decided is the kind of first option. 05:18.190 --> 05:21.780 Second option is all these curly bits. 05:21.900 --> 05:23.630 OK. 05:24.100 --> 05:28.080 So three OK has them kind of coming back across. 05:28.140 --> 05:34.360 There's one here fall for looks the same as everything else say five. 05:34.390 --> 05:35.540 I'm just going through them all right. 05:35.540 --> 05:37.580 So they're often OK. 05:37.610 --> 05:40.040 It's an open type font or Kyp font. 05:40.040 --> 05:46.410 There are stylistic saints and you will find just kind of some extra glyphs and ligatures to use and 05:46.470 --> 05:50.150 you can copy and paste them from age to kind of build up something quite nice. 05:50.150 --> 05:55.840 Another new feature is called The technology has been around for a while but there's just so I'm going 05:55.840 --> 05:57.140 to use this body copy here. 05:57.350 --> 06:00.850 And these variable fonts which is kind of crazy right. 06:00.870 --> 06:08.200 There's only a few of them available at the moment and illustrator has included a couple in the this 06:08.360 --> 06:09.010 version. 06:09.090 --> 06:11.720 OK this is s.c 2018. 06:11.900 --> 06:14.030 But if I drop this down this is Chunkin here. 06:14.030 --> 06:15.310 Can you see his var. 06:15.500 --> 06:18.880 OK so it is open type variables and pick. 06:18.980 --> 06:20.520 There's not many to pick from. 06:20.540 --> 06:27.020 So we're going to pick from and use Ekuban OK because it has lots of things so click on that. 06:27.230 --> 06:31.290 Now what's going to happen is nothing except this little option here. 06:31.400 --> 06:34.370 Don't click on that and this magic Ignus happens. 06:34.370 --> 06:37.130 So watch this somehow what's striking. 06:37.160 --> 06:37.890 Keep an eye on that. 06:38.060 --> 06:39.560 Let's move this up here. 06:40.190 --> 06:40.690 OK. 06:40.730 --> 06:41.520 Watch this. 06:41.540 --> 06:45.600 You wait it just magically gets bigger. 06:45.770 --> 06:46.090 OK. 06:46.100 --> 06:50.570 So it's not just like adding a stroker on the outside the design has made some really kind of stylistic 06:50.570 --> 06:53.460 choices about how things grow where they grow. 06:53.680 --> 06:54.380 OK. 06:54.710 --> 06:55.610 So wait. 06:55.610 --> 06:57.070 Same with the with. 06:57.890 --> 07:03.380 It's pretty amazing that you can just go actually I want the you know is that a condensed or compress 07:03.380 --> 07:06.500 you can kind of find some kind of happy medium for what you need. 07:06.500 --> 07:07.890 Ok same with the slant. 07:08.050 --> 07:08.730 OK. 07:08.970 --> 07:10.610 Pretty Kohei. 07:11.940 --> 07:16.710 And there's not many fonts that are built into Illustrator and there are more you can go and buy and 07:16.710 --> 07:18.820 use if you need that kind of flexibility. 07:18.840 --> 07:20.100 Not all of them have the full. 07:20.100 --> 07:26.370 I picked that one as an example because it has weight with and sland some of the let's say like some 07:26.370 --> 07:29.760 of these verbal ones say minyon OK and I click on this. 07:29.760 --> 07:35.390 It only has white and optical size K so can the weight and the optical size is kind of interesting like 07:35.580 --> 07:41.040 it's not really making it wider or big it's just kind of like adding more volume. 07:41.040 --> 07:42.180 Some pretty cool stuff. 07:42.180 --> 07:45.430 All right my friends that is my tips and tricks for fonts. 07:45.450 --> 07:48.200 And type in Adobe Illustrator. 07:48.210 --> 07:49.230 Let's get on to some more. 07:49.230 --> 07:50.900 Type things in this section. 07:50.900 --> 07:51.230 All right. 07:51.310 --> 07:52.050 So in the next video.
