CM – Retro Textpress Pro – AI Actions 415259

With Retro Textpress Pro, I’ve broken down the process of creating retro text effects and designed a simple system that enables you to create custom effects almost effortlessly.

This system combines an easy-to-follow workflow with Actions that automate each step of the process.

Offset your type and add elements such as drop shadows, outlines, styles and fills with the click of a button.

Creating effects is as simple as choosing which combination of these elements you want to use and running the appropriate Actions on your type one after the other, essentially building the effect step by step.

Unlike when using Graphic Styles, all of the individual elements created by these Actions are directly selectable and editable. This gives you more control, allowing you to create a much greater variety of effects.

If you’re unfamiliar with using Actions, don’t worry, Retro Textpress Pro comes with a user guide and cheat sheet that explains everything you need to know.
