Creating boxes around text....


hi,

 

i'm hoping there better solution problem i've using.

 

i able create box around text able resize when increasing/decreasing font.

 

my working solution create text box text use direct selection tool select anchors , convert shape, either rectangle or rounded rectangle. isn't bad since allows equal amount of space around text have problems. if font size increases or decreases, box remains same. have use area type option resize box. also, if wanted lots of boxes have select of individual anchors time consuming.

 

is there simpler solution?

 

thanks.

use selection tool (black arrow) select text , add new fill via appearance panel.

 

move new fill below characters item in appearance panel

 

with fill highlighted choose effect > convert shape > rectangle
