To apply a 3D Extrude graphic style to text, which steps are used?

• A. Effect > 3D > Extrude & Bevel
• B. Window > Graphic Styles > click the 3D Extrude effect
• C. Window > Styles > 3D Extrude
• D. Object > Expand > 3D

Answer: (B)

Graphic styles let you apply a complete appearance, including 3D extrusion, to an object in one step. To do this, open the Graphic Styles panel (Window > Graphic Styles), select your text, and click the 3D Extrude style. The style brings in the extrusion, shading, and lighting settings that were saved with it, so you get a consistent 3D look quickly. The other options don’t apply a graphic style: using the Effects menu is a manual 3D operation, there isn’t a Styles panel path labeled for 3D Extrude, and Expand converts an applied effect to editable geometry rather than applying a named style.
