Made To Fit: Part Two

This tip relates to a previous tip, where you created what’s called a “text box” so that your type wraps within a text block, rather than running in one straight line. The tip is this: If you’ve created some standard type by just clicking and typing rather than creating a paragraph text block, you’re not out of luck. While the Type layer is active, just go under the Layer menu, under Type, and choose Convert to Paragraph Text. Now your type will wrap within the text box boundaries, and you can edit the boundaries by adjusting the corner and center points.
