Can I adjust kerning in Webflow or do I need to create the wordmark/logo/head in illustrator and import it as a picture each time?
In Webflow, you have the ability to adjust the kerning of text directly within the Designer, eliminating the need to create the wordmark or logo in Illustrator and import it as an image each time. Here's how you can adjust kerning in Webflow:
Select the text element: Click on the text you want to adjust the kerning for within the Designer. This will bring up the text settings in the right sidebar.
Open the typography settings: In the right sidebar, click on the "Typography" tab to access the typography settings for the selected text element.
Adjust the kerning: Scroll down to the "Spacing" section, where you can find the option to adjust the kerning. The kerning option is labeled "Letter Spacing". You can increase or decrease the value to adjust the spacing between the letters. A positive value will increase the spacing, while a negative value will decrease it.
Preview the changes: As you adjust the kerning value, you'll see the changes reflected in the live preview of your website. This allows you to fine-tune the kerning until you achieve the desired visual result.
By adjusting the kerning directly within Webflow, you can have more control over the typography and maintain the flexibility to make changes at any time, without having to rely on importing images from external design software.
