How to Make Squeezed Type in Adobe Illustrator Tutorial

February 1, 2020

Bowlby One font (free download) - https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/bowlby-one

This Adobe Illustrator tutorial goes over how you can easily create a squeezed text effect inside the tool! Illustrator is a super powerful tool for typography in general, and the built-in effects make it very easy to customize the type in a way that is non-destructive leaving your text still editable!

Creating the squeezed type effect is the result of using two different types of warp effects, so it's fast to go from the text into the effect. Also at the end I'll go over how to make the text look a little bit more handmade by using a built-in roughen filter.
