That’s excellent. I started trying out the Wingdings set and you get cool shapes with that.

Then I tried it with just Arial, and the { makes a cool candle stick holder and the } makes a good shape of a pill. And when you rotate it 45 degrees it makes a bowl.

So rotating the type gives it more posibilities. With 365 degrees in a rotation there is virtually billions of shapes you can create with the keyboard and the punctuation keys.

That’s an fantastic discovery.

Thanks for sharing.

I tried it and it is AWESOME!
Why won’t it let me create the same effect in a web document instead of just print. All my Effects are greyed out and won’t allow me to select them.
