To Change the Auto Track Levels

With RSG, you can change the levels of tracking that apply to all autotracked text in a document. You can also copy the tracking levels from another document.

  1. Choose Utilities from the Document menu, and then choose Auto Track Specs. A dialog box displays a list of every font-style combination used in your document. The style is indicated by the letter(s) in brackets.

  2. Select the font and style whose tracking levels you want to change, and click Edit. A dialog box displays the tracking graph for each point size of the font at the level of the tracking shown.

  3. To display the graph for another tracking level, choose the required one from the pop-up menu in the dialog box.

  4. Change the tracking graph by dragging the two bold dots to the desired positions on the graph. As you drag the leftmost dot, the amount of tracking and the font size at which tracking starts are displayed. To track or letterspace, drag the dot vertically. To change the minimum applicable font size, drag it horizontally. Drag the second dot to change the maximum size at which a font is tracked.

  5. Click OK to return to the Auto Track Specs dialog box.

  6. Click Done when you're finished.

To copy tracking specs from one font to another, choose Utilities from the Document menu, and then choose Auto Track Specs. Select the font-style combination containing the tracking specs you want to copy, and click Copy. Then select the font and style to which you want the specs copied, and click Paste. Click OK to confirm the paste. Click Done when you're finished.

To add or replace tracking specs by copying from another document, choose Utilities from the Document menu, and then choose Auto Track Specs. Click Import, and open the document that has the tracking specs you want. You can only import the tracking specs for font-style combinations that appear in your current document. Either select a font-style combination and click Import, or click Import All. Then click OK to return to the Auto Track Specs dialog box. Click Done when you're finished.

To restore a tracking level to its normal setting, choose Utilities from the Document menu, and then choose Auto Track Specs. Select the font and style whose tracking specs you want to restore, and click Edit. Select the level and click Reset.
