    Illustrator Beta (starting with 30.9.0.52) now offers its own approach to dynamic text.

    Text auto-resizes and reflows to fit its container as we scale or reshape it. It also works with Type on a Path, so any curve we draw gets the same fit-to-space behavior.

    Please try it and share what you think about it with the team in comments — the feedback we share is shaping what gets shipped.

    • Select the Type tool. Click to add a line of text, drag to create a text area, or select an existing type object.
    • Turn on Dynamic Text (the T with a lighting bolt button) from the Contextual Task Bar, Properties, or Control panels.
    • Resize or reshape the bounding box to see the text fit itself.
    • Alter the settings in the Properties panel (only there for now)

    We desperately need a feature so text can automatically fill a text box, without having to manually scale down to fit all the pasted letters in! We sell custom labels, and spend so much time resizing font to fit the text box.
