Learn how to use Rewrite to generate, rephrase, proofread, translate, or resize text to fit layouts.

Rewrite lets you generate and refine text in Illustrator. Create text variations for marketing copy, rephrase selected text, proofread content for grammar and spelling, translate content into supported languages, or resize text to better fit a text box or layout.
