Adobe Illustrator Text plug-ins with 2 important functions: restore flowable text boxes, and to be able to apply tab leadering in Adobe Illustrator (version 8 and higher).

The Text Restore function will turn out to be very useful when you are working on files in Adobe Illustrator that were originated in another applications, and that were converted to Illustrator over EPS or PDF: one of the problems resulting from such a workflow is that all (flowable) text boxes in the original applications are converted to a set of text objects in Illustrator, therefore limiting the editability, or making editing this text cumbersome and expensive.

The Text Restore tool does not change the fact that text is converted to point text on import, but it gives you the ability to restore paragraphs from a collection of point text items.

The Tab Leader function finally allows uses to simply create ingredient and food menu text boxes where you don't need white space between the items, but a line of dots ...

Requirements:
Adobe Illustrator.
