How to stretch text in a text box?

[trox]

Hi everyone,



does anyone know how to make text wider in a text box for PowerPoint 2010 without increasing the font size? I just want to stretch it out a bit. Seems there should be a simple way to do this.

Thanks,

trox

You can use the Character Spacing option. Looks like <-AV-> in the Font section of the Home Tab

Thank you so much JohnWilson! You wouldn't believe how long it took me to get an answer. Worked like a charm. Haha!
