Here are some tips that must be kept in mind before using the Shadow and Reflection technique over the text:
- It is quite tricky to apply the reflection effect over the words like ‘y’ and ‘g’. So if you are not novice, then you should avoid applying reflection technique over these words.
- To give a natural look to the text, the font size of reflection must be kept bit smaller than the original text.
- When you print the document that has the Shadowed text, the background color of the text blocks drop shadows. It gives different hue than the other part of the document. To avoid this situation, you must use the CMYK color for the background, rather than using the spot colors. If not, then you should transfer the file to the PDF format. This will help in flattening the transparency.
- If you want to have a clearly looking shadow, then always use the white background in the document.
