- [Instructor] Creating an extruded shadow.
Select the type on the appearance panel.
Add two fills.
I want my type to be white and my shadow to be black.
Select the second fill, in this case, the black one.
And then from the FX dropdown,
distort and transform, transform.
Come to the move sliders.
I want to create multiple copies, each one slightly offset
from the one that came before.
In my case, I'm going to move each one this distance,
.1 of a point.
But you'll need to adjust that according
to the size of the type that you're working with.
And then I'm going to come down to the copies field
and I want 250.
Now how many copies you need
and how far you need to move each of those, as I say,
you'll have to vary that.
But when you zoom in, you want to make sure
that you're not seeing a jagged effect.
That should be smooth on the edge.
