Find Similar Fonts?

Choosing fonts is one of the hard parts of designing something with text, particularly when you start with no guidelines and a blank canvas. So let’s say you start with a font that’s not quite right, but you want to find something similar. Just select your text and open the font pop-up menu in the Control panel, Properties panel, or Character panel. Next to your chosen font are a couple of little wavy lines. When you hover over those lines, it will say Show Similar Fonts—click on this to see a list of fonts that are close in style to the one you started with. You can then go ahead and click on a different font to select it. Remember, if you change the font, you may find that your text no longer fits your text frame. In this case, click-and-drag a corner of the frame outward to adjust it.
