Adjust the scale of type

You can specify the proportion between the height and width of the type, relative to the original width and height of the characters. Unscaled characters have a value of 100%. Some type families include a true expanded font, which is designed with a larger horizontal spread than the plain type style. Scaling distorts the type, so it is generally preferable to use a font that is designed as condensed or expanded, if one is available.

Select the characters or type objects you want to change. If you don’t select any text, the scale applies to new text you create.
In the Character panel, set the Vertical Scaling option or the Horizontal Scaling option .
