Aligning type

You can align type to change its relationship to the initial cursor position (where you clicked when you first entered the type). Alignment affects all type on a layer.

To specify alignment:

1. If you're working with an existing layer, select the type layer in the Layers palette and then select a type tool.
2. In the options bar, click an alignment option.

The options for horizontal type are:

Aligns the left edge of each type line in the layer to the initial cursor position.

Aligns the center of each type line in the layer to the initial cursor position.

Aligns the right edge of each type line in the layer to the initial cursor position.

The options for vertical type are:

Aligns the top edge of each type line in the layer to the initial cursor position.

Aligns the center of each type line in the layer to the initial cursor position.

Aligns the bottom edge of each type line in the layer to the initial cursor position.
