Hi there anyone knows how I can control text edition like changing the kerning or the space between characters in a word or paragraph using Inkscape Vector Graphics Editor. Hope you can help since I have been trying to do it, but I dont find an option to do it.

When you are editing text, the Alt+< and Alt+> keys change the letter spacing in the current line of a text object, so that the total length of the line changes by 1 pixel at the current zoom (compare to Selector tool where the same keys do pixel-sized object scaling). As a rule, if the font size in a text object is larger than the default, it will likely benefit from squeezing letters a bit tighter than the default. Here's an example:"
