Firstly, if you haven't done so already, you're going to need
to download from somewhere a zip file containing some presets.
You're welcome to download the ones I have here if you like.
Just click on the image below to start the download process.
Then using WinZip or some other unzipping programme, unzip the
presets to a folder on your computer.

In PI open the Easy Palette, click on Galleries and right click
on the gallery you'd like the presets to go in and then click
on Import.

The Import Gallery window will open. In the Look
in drop down menu, find the folder your presets were unzipped
to, then be sure that the "Merge file with active gallery"
arial button is activated before double clicking on the presets
.SMP file.

In your Easy Palette you will see that a new subsection has been
added to the gallery you chose for your downloaded presets to
go in and the preset are ready for use.

Presets can be used on any path objects including text. Here
are some examples of what my presets look like when applied to
objects.
