Type tools in Adobe Illustrator Ep12/19 [Adobe Illustrator for Beginners]

In this video we are going to be focusing on type in Adobe Illustrator. It would be pretty tedious and difficult to create brochures, magazines, newspapers or books in this program but illustrator does offer a range of tools to be creative with type which you may find useful for logos, T-shirt designs, posters or book covers.
In this tutorial we are going to be looking at the the Type tools on offer, and how we might use them.
