Leading in Photoshop is a critical part of creating a professional looking document. It can help you to identify important elements of your image, and make your text more easily readable. However, there are a few things you can do to adjust lead if it’s causing problems for you.
- Use a lead-free font. Many fonts are lead-free, which means they don’t contain any lead or heavy metals that could harm your computer or graphics card. This is especially important if you’re using Photoshop on an online platform like Google Chrome or Safari, where lead content could potentially be viewable by other users.
- Use smaller font sizes. When using smaller font sizes, you’ll need to make sure that each letter is at least 1/8th of the size it would be with a larger font size. This will help to reduce the amount of space required for each letter in your document, and also ensure that your text is easier to read when viewed onscreen or printed out.
- Use white space between words instead of leading them together like in most documents today. White space helps to break up words and make them easier to read on screen and print out. You can also use white space as part of your text alignment properties (such as left-to-right or top-to-bottom), so that all words are placed equally within their respective blocks of text
