Apologies if this has been asked already specifically, I couldn't find it if it has.

My question, is in Illustrator is there a way/option/trick to for example select multiple blocks of Text and make them evenly spaced Horizontally within the area of the artboard?

I know with a Path you can split it into a Grid, but what about something like Text elements? Thanks for any insight.

You can use the Distribute spacing buttons on the Align Panel.

You can't split area text boxes. But you can draw a series of rectangles and then convert them to area text boxes.

  • Ah that's a clever solution, I was hoping I could just have a bunch of Text blocks, select them all, and space them evenly. I'll have to go look at the differences between the TextBox and regular type. Apologize for the ignorance but I normally do more dev than design anymore and I was much better with PS than I am AI so far. Thanks though, I imagine I should go ahead and count this correct. Cheers! :) – Chris W. Oct 25 '13 at 19:25
