Greeking type below a specified font size
Adobe Illustrator greeks—displays as a dimmed bar—type below a specified type size, as 
set in the Greeking Limit text box in the Type & Auto Tracing Preferences dialog box. Any 
type at or below the specified type size is replaced on-screen with non-letterforms that act 
as placeholders in the artwork. Greeking type affects only artwork displayed on-screen, 
not the printed image. 
In addition, if you reduce the document view so that type on-screen falls below the greek 
type limit, the type appears greeked. For example, if the greek type limit is set at 6 points, 
12-point type viewed at a 50% zoom level appears greeked.
To set the greek type limit:
Choose Edit > Preferences > Type & Auto Tracing (Windows and Mac OS 9) or 
Illustrator > Preferences > Type & Auto Tracing (Mac OS X).
Enter a value in points in the Greeking text box, and click OK.
Formatting columns and paragraphs
The Adobe Illustrator program includes a number of features especially useful for working 
with larger groups of type, such as type laid out within columns. These functions enable 
you to set the paragraph indentation and text alignment, change the amount of space 
between paragraphs, set tab marks, and fit type to fill a set width. You can even specify 
where words break in paragraphs, using the hyphenation feature. 
Using the Paragraph palette
You change the formatting of columns and paragraphs using the Paragraph palette.
