Steps to Apply Different Colors to the Same Font:

Open Adobe Illustrator and create a new document.
Select the Type Tool (T) from the toolbar and click anywhere on the artboard.
Type your desired text.
2. Choose Your Font
Select the text, and in the Properties Panel, choose the font style you want.
3. Convert to Outlines (Optional)
If you want more control over individual parts of the text:
Select the text.
Right-click and choose Create Outlines (Shift + Ctrl + O / Shift + Command + O on Mac).
This converts the text into editable vector shapes.
4. Ungroup Characters
If you created outlines:
Select the outlined text, then go to Object > Ungroup (Shift + Ctrl + G / Shift + Command + G).
Now, each letter is an individual object.
5. Apply Colors
Select the text or individual letters using the Selection Tool (V).
Go to the Fill Color option in the toolbar or Swatches Panel, and apply the desired color.
Repeat this process for each part or letter you want to color differently.
6. Add Gradient (Optional)
For a blended effect, select the text or a part of it.
Open the Gradient Panel (Ctrl + F9 / Command + F9).
Apply a gradient and adjust the colors to achieve the desired look.
7. Final Adjustments
Align and group your text if needed.
Select all the text and go to Object > Group (Ctrl + G / Command + G).
