Illustrator CS: previewing text fonts

[Eric Chard]

One of the nice things in Photoshop is you can highlight the font name, and SCROLL through the available fonts to see how each one would look, because each time you change the font, Photoshop updates the on-screen text.

This doesn’t seem to be true in Illustrator CS, which is very inconvenient.

Is there a FAST way to see how your text will look in a number of fonts in Illustrator??
