126 Chapter 7 Working with Text

Changing the Paragraph Background Color Using the Font Panel

You can use the Font panel to add a color behind a paragraph.

To modify the background color of a selected paragraph:

1 Click Fonts in the toolbar.

2 Click the Document Color button in the Font panel (the fourth button from the left),

and then select a color in the Colors window. See “Using the Colors Window” on

page 161 for instructions.

Creating Shadows on Text Using the Font Panel

You can use the Font panel to create and format shadows on text.

To define shadows on selected text:

1 Click Fonts in the toolbar.

2 Click the Text Shadow button in the Font panel (the fifth button from the left).

3 Drag the shadow opacity slider (the first slider on the left) to the right to make the

shadow darker.

4 Drag the shadow blur slider (the middle slider) to the right to make the shadow more

diffuse.

5 Drag the shadow offset slider (the third slider) to the right to separate the shadow from

the text.

6 Rotate the Shadow Angle wheel to set the direction of the shadow.

You can also set text shadows in the Graphic Inspector, as described in “Adding

Shadows” on page 156.

Adding Accents and Special Characters

If you need to type characters with accent marks (such as ü), mathematical symbols,

arrows, or other special characters, you can use the International preferences pane or

the Character Palette. You can also see where characters are located on keyboards used

for other languages by using the Keyboard Viewer (for example, you can see how the

keys on an Italian keyboard are laid out). All of these are built-in tools of Mac OS X.

Adding Accent Marks

You can use the Keyboard Viewer available in System Preferences to add accent marks

to characters.

To add accent marks:

1 Choose Apple > System Preferences and click International.

2 Click Input Menu, then select the checkbox next to Keyboard Viewer.
