avant garde

Ok this maybe a very stupid question but how do you get the letter to slant when you use the avant garde font? Do I use a glyph or hit a magic button?

Theres an alternate version of the font, apparently. Never got my hands on it though. Although it has been a bit overused in the last few years.

Go into Opentype, you can then view all glyphs (or specifically the alternates etc) for that face.
