Choose a number style in OpenType fonts

To change the style of existing numbers, select the characters or type objects you want to change. If you don’t select any text, the setting applies to new text you create.
Make sure that an OpenType font is selected.
In the OpenType panel, choose an option from the Figures pop‑up menu:
Default Figure

Uses the default style for the current font.
Tabular Lining

Uses full-height figures all of the same width (if available for the current font). This option is appropriate in situations where numbers need to line up from one line to the next, as in tables.
Proportional Lining

Uses full-height figures with varying widths (if available for the current font). This option is recommended for text that uses all caps.
Proportional Oldstyle

Uses varying-height figures with varying widths (if available for the current font). This option is recommended for a classic, sophisticated look in text that doesn’t use all caps.
Tabular Oldstyle

Uses varying-height figures with fixed, equal widths (if available for the current font). This option is recommended when you want the classic appearance of old-style figures, but need them to align in columns, as in an annual report.
