Explanation

In Adobe Illustrator, point type and area type are two different types of text objects that you can use to add text to your designs. Here are the main differences between point type and area type: Point Type: Definition: Point type is a type of text object where the text is entered into a single point, and the text expands outward from that point. Characteristics: It is a single line of text that doesn't automatically wrap to the next line. The text expands horizontally from the insertion point. Usage: Point type is suitable for short, one-line text such as headlines, titles, or labels. Area Type: Definition: Area type is a type of text object that is contained within a defined area or shape, and the text automatically wraps within that area. Characteristics: It allows for multiple lines of text, and the text automatically adjusts to fit within the boundaries of the defined area. You can resize the area, and the text will reflow accordingly. Usage: Area type is suitable for longer paragraphs or blocks of text where you want the text to flow within a specific shape or region.
