Style Guide

> Open �Retro Text DECC_30_0.ai� document from unzipped 'Retro Text DECC_30_0.zip'
folder;

There are three Examples in the illustrator document � words �RETRO� with the
applied Style �Retro Text DECC.30.0�:
� Example 1 � the Style applied to editable Text, initially designed with the font
'Ultra', Regular, 98 pt font size. Both � the Text and the Style are editable.
If the font 'Ultra' is not installed on your computer, the first Example may look
different from the others. Font 'Ultra' (Open License) included in the main zip
folder ( �Google fonts� link for the Font: fonts.google.com/specimen/Ultra ). You
can install and use it, and you can also use any font you like with this Style;
� Example 2 � the Style applied to the outlined text (the Style is editable);
� Example 3 � fully expanded Style (only vector paths are editable).

With the first Example you can replace the Text (using the �Type Tool�), change the
Font and edit the Style using the Appearance panel and the Graphics Styles panel.

You can also apply the Style to any new text and object:
> Type some text inside �Retro Text DECC_30_0.ai� document (font size for better
results around 90-100 pt), or create any simple object;
> Make sure the text, object, or group are selected;
> Go to the Graphic Styles panel (Window > Graphic Styles) and select the �Retro
Text DECC.30.0� Style,
or drag the graphic style from the panel onto an object in the document window (for
style dragging, the object does not have to be selected first).
