Select the Text Tool (F8), click on the vertical guideline. On the Infobar, click the Center Justify icon (the centered lines). Select a serif font such as Times Roman Bold (I have used Adobe Garamond Bold), set the size to 36pt, and key in the text THE GOLDEN LEAF (press Enter to start a new line). Highlight all the text by dragging the Text Tool cursor across all of the characters. (You can also press Ctrl a - select all - to select all the characters). On the Infobar at the top of the screen, change the Line Spacing to 80.00 and click the right Tracking arrow to increase the space between the letters to 160 . You can use the arrow keys next to the text entry boxes to adjust both settings.
Select the text and Convert to Editable Shapes (Arrange menu). Switch to the Contour Tool (Ctrl F7) and click on the converted text to select it. Drag outwards a short amount to apply an Outer Contour. On the Infobar, change the number of Contour Steps to 1 and press Enter. Change the Contour Width slider setting to 4pix. And click the Round Join icon.
