Text object with 
boundaries
Choose to indicate that the text object has set 
boundaries. This type of text object is the opposite 
of a free form text object.
Expand/Condense

Create text, and then expand and condense text 
horizontally according to the percentage selected.

If you select Free form text object or Text object 
with boundaries
, the percentage combo box will be 
inactive.
If you change the expand/condense text option to 
either Free form text object or Text object with 
boundaries
, the default type size in the Font tab 
(text properties) will be used.
Auto size font
Available only when a text object with boundaries is 
selected. Choose to tell the application to 
automatically set the point size of the text to fit 
within the text object. The appropriate point size is 
implemented for your text. 
The limiting dimension is determined by the width 
or height of the text. When the text meets either the 
horizontal or vertical boundary, the sizing stops.
In variable text objects, the text object size will be 
the same for each label generated, but the size of the 
font may vary, depending on the amount of text 
needed to fill the text object. For example, if “fox” 
and “elephant” are items in a text list, “fox” prints 
in a larger font size than “elephant.
If you change the font size yourself, for instance by 
using the Size option on the Font tab, the system 
disables the Auto size font option.
Note: This option is disabled for free form text 
objects.
