- **X****-****Deskew** - Render a non-italic font as italic.
- **Y-Deskew** - Render the font deskewed in the Y-direction.
- **Char** **Rotation** - Rotate the chars. The angle can be specified.
- **Char** **Spacing** - Increase or decrease (by putting a negative value) the spacing between the chars.
- **Row****Spacing** - Increase or decrease (by putting a negative value) the spacing between the rows.
- **Character** **Case** - Force the characters to be upper- or lower-case.
- **Effect** - There are a number of render effects to choose from. Only one effect can be applied at the time.

### Alternative Font Engine

The Windows font engine can be used to show text right-to-left. Select the Microsoft DrawText (RTL) in the 'Text render method' dropdown.
