Body Copy: 4/20

Last Cycle we didn't talk a lot about what your body copy should like like. If you look at examples of professional layout you will see that the chosen font is usually simple and easy to read. Here are some formatting tips:
Body Copy:
• Pt Size: 10 – 14 is recommended
• Leading: “Auto” or close to it
• Alignment: Left or Justified
(Justified: Indent first line, left align last line. Format one paragraph and then put it into your paragraph styles palette (in the type menu) for easy formatting in the future)
• Squishing:Use Horizontal Scale 5%
“squish” those awkward 1 word lines at the end of your paragraph, up into the preceding line of text.
