Course Description
This course is a hands-on demonstration of how fonts are
converted to vector paths in Adobe InDesign, using the Create Outlines
command, which you may also know as outline type, converting type to outline (or outlines), vector type, or converting type to paths.
After
a brief overview of how fonts are made, you'll learn how to convert
them to vectors, and then through the exercises, use the results as a
frame for graphics and text. You'll also see how this technique can be
used when preparing materials to be printed.
Resource files and links are included in the course, too.
This
fun technique will help you see how type can be used creatively as a
graphic element, beyond just communicating the written word, and it
will help you hone your Adobe InDesign skills.
Students
who want to complete the exercises must have beginner InDesign skills.
Fundamental techniques may be shown, but not explained.
