Kerning, tracking and leading between characters in a text block can now be easily controlled using only the keyboard (simply put the cursor in between characters and use the keyboard arrow keys).
The slider value for kerning and tracking has been increased to 200.
If you open a PNG file created in Fireworks v. CS3 or lower, the kerning and tracking values will be automatically mapped and the look of the text will be preserved.
A new option (unique to Adobe Fireworks) allows you to multi-select characters and words in a text box and then style them together at once. This is complemented by another new option that allows you to auto-select similarly styled characters, words or paragraphs inside a text block, and then modify their styles at once.
An editable and auto-completing font list box feature has been added (Windows version only).
Now, you don’t need to restart Fireworks after installing a new font (Windows version only).
Undoing (Ctrl/Cmd + Z) and redoing (Ctrl/Cmd + Y) at the character level is now possible while you’re in text-editing mode.
Double-clicking selects the word, and triple-clicking selects the entire paragraph.
In the Layers panel, text object layers are now marked with a tiny “T” icon, for easier recognition.
A Text Overflow indicator appears when extra characters (that don’t fit the text-in-path or text-on-path) exist.
Copying and pasting text from any version of Microsoft Office into Fireworks is much improved.
The number of characters that can be copied and pasted into a Fireworks text block at once has been increased from 2000 to 8000.
