Preserved Topic: How do I both Left and Right justify text? (Page 1 of 1)

Hi I am trying to make a block of text however some of my justify options for my text are greyed out?


Chip the glasses and crack the plates! Blunt the knives and bend the forks! That's what Bilbo Baggins hates-Smash the bottles and burn the corks!

You mean 'fully justify'? Arr.. ya can't do that in PS, but you can in illustrator and other similar vextor applications.

Greyed out options? Hmm... never seen that before. Are you using text boxes or the free form text tool?

OK, I'm assuming that it's not a very large amount of text (big assumption, I know). In Photoshop, I would just do that by hand--increase word spacing until it was justified. Very messy, probably not the best way, but I usually just go with what works for me.

Oh yah, I alomst forgot that one... How silly of me.

You can fully justify text using paragrap text but you have to put the text into a 'text box'.

To do this grab the text tool 't' then drag out a bounding box on the canvas. You can change the size later so don't stress about it too much. When you have type inside a 'text box' then you can apply the other justification options.
