When you create text using the Area Type tool
or the Vertical Area Type tool, you can apply tabs in much the same
way as you would in a word-processing program. Tabs are especially
useful in creating professional-looking rolling credits. You can
set multiple tabs within a text box and press the Tab key to move the
cursor to the next available tab stop. You can specify a different
justification option at each tab stop.
Note: Tabs work exclusively
to align the characters within text objects. To align entire text
or graphic objects, use the Align command.

- Choose Title > Tab Stops.
- Align the “0” line in the Tab Stops ruler with the left
edge of the selected text box.
- Click the tab ruler above the numbers to create a tab.
Drag the tab stop to adjust its position. As you drag, a yellow
vertical line, or tab marker, indicates the tab’s position
in the selected text box.
To create a tab stop with left-justified
text, click the Left Justify tab marker  .
To create a tab stop with center-justified text,
