greenleaf  •  tips for using special features 31  |  32
We want using Greenleaf
to be easy, but know the fonts
do a lot of different tricks
and that you all have lots of
different computers, apps, and
comfort levels with design.
And so, here are some pointers
for getting the most out of
Greenleaf with the least work.
Accessing Characters in Windows
In Windows 10, Character Map appears in the Windows Accessories
folder in the Start Menu. In Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7, it’s
in All Programs F Accessories F System Tools F Character Map in
the Start Menu. Beginning with Windows Vista, you can also type
“character menu” in the Start Menu search box/Cortana.
Accessing Characters with the Adobe Creative Cloud Glyphs Panel
InDesign  , Photoshop  , and Illustrator  all possess a panel which
allows users to find and insert characters (“glyphs”) from any font. Click
and place the text cursor where you want to enter a character, and then
choose Type F Glyphs to open the Glyphs panel. Scroll through the
menu until you see the character you want. Double-click the character
you want to insert, and it will appear at the text insertion point. You can
also display a pop‑up menu of alternate glyphs by clicking and holding
a given character’s cell.
Accessing Discretionary Ligatures in Apple Pages
Highlight the characters you’d like to replace with discretionary ligatures
and select Format F Font F Ligature F Use All. Easy.
Turn on Kerning to Align Chromatic Characters
Greenleaf’s multicolored (“chromatic”) characters work by using a
feature called kerning, which adjusts the spacing between pairs of
characters. It’s usually just on and you don’t need to think about it,
but some apps require users to activate the feature. Every program’s
different, so try these help links for Microsoft Word  , PowerPoint  ,
InDesign  , Photoshop  , and Illustrator  .
Turn on Ligatures to Connect Characters
Many Greenleaf fonts rely on a ligature feature to create their
connecting effects, and like kerning, above, you might need to activate
the feature yourself. Try these links to see how it works in Apple Pages 
and Keynote  , Microsoft Word  , InDesign  , Photoshop  , and
Illustrator  . (Ligatures currently aren’t supported by PowerPoint.)
