Hello.

I'm using the pen tool tracing a drawing and want to create the line thats thick at one end and thin at the other, like calligraphy type lines, how tdo you set them up?

Anyone know?

Use a brush with an oval shape and stroke the path with it. There should be preset brushes in PS ready to callig.

If you want the line to be tapered, rather than caligraphic, go to the Brushes palette and set the Size control to 'Fade'. Experiment with different values until you get the taper you want
