    Default distance of type on a path from path

    How do I set the distance of type on a path from the path? What I want to do, is draw a curved line representing a river and move the text up enough to allow a brush stroke.

    Left bottom corner of the text pallet. You might need to tell the pallet to "show options" in order to get it.

    Carl,

    You can read it in Help>Index>Type, setting attributes>Specifying baseline shift.

    It is in the Chearacter palette when you choose Show options.
