I often need to adjust the height or curvature of shapes in Illustrator,

Object, Appearance, Stylize, Warp -- IIRC
Otherwise, transform window

There are tools which will show the current angles, and length of paths - but I know of none that will disallow you from exceeding a desired value.

You may want to use a CAD program for this.

Any programs you recommend?

Yo another illustrator question I just need to trace the letters in this image, it's literally just lines and it's black on transparent, it theoretically shouldn't be that difficult, but after rasterizing and a lot fiddling with the image trace settings it comes out blobby and barely looking anything like the letters

Can someone help me figure out this shit?

You're not going to be able to trace that image.

I noticed you can type, though. So type it.
