Is it possible to scale font in one dimension for all letter

[ab_uk]

Hello,

I have ttf files with some fonts, I need to scale it along Y-axis. That means that new height should be 70% of the original height. Widht should not be changed. I can scale each letter node by node, but it takes too much time. Is there a way to scale at least all nodes in one letter in "one click"?

TIA

Yes, that is easy to do with the full (or demo version), but there is no feature to do this with Type light (free).

To do it to a single glyph using the full (or demo) version, select the stretch tool then right click in the edit window. Enter these values:
Origin (x,y): 0 0
Stretch (x,y)%: 100 70
and press OK.

You could also create an action script to perform this action over multiple glyphs in one go. Use the script:
origin 0 0
stretch 100 70

You can also assign this action to a shortcut key so that you can perform the operation on the current glyph with a single key-press.
