Hello everyone, I am preparing some trees and need to italicise the taxon names, but I am having trouble. Could anyone help me? Thank you very much for your availability.

There are two ways I know of. 1. While in the tree window, select from the top menu "Text>Font>Other..." and then look for an italics font available on your computer. and 2. (Which I prefer for publication figures)- Save the tree as a PDF ("File>Save tree as PDF...") and edit it in Adobe Illustrator or similar software. I find the #2 allows for a lot more flexibility in editing the tree for publications or presentations.
