3 Ways to Convert Text to Vector Adobe Illustrator

Phenomenal. Thank you!!!

Simply the most helpful video on the topic of turning text into a vector or to outline the text! AMAZING! Thank you!

I know a third reason to convert text to outline. Our customer was asking for us to use "Helvetica Condensed Italic" for a silk screen but the standard font set on my computer does not include that so I downloaded one from a web site. When I looked at the text, everything looked great but when I printed, there were tiny dots all around it which would cause a reject as you can imagine. By converting to outlines, this problem disappeared. Thanks for your help in solving this problem.

Came to the video to learn how to convert text to vector and got a seminar on what are vectors? Why convert? Who is Vector. blah blah blah blah

CONTRL + shift + O

Why when I do the outline of the letter and then I try to do the inside part of the letter, the outer part deletes, like when i try to minus the second part of letter it doesnt want to do it

I wish MyFont still had the 'Fit To Width' option available.

When a font is converted to outlines, an outline is added to it which makes the font thicker. It's barely noticeable on thick fonts because the outline is so thin, but particularly noticeable when converting really thin fonts. Is there a way of avoiding this? I am designing a logo and want to use a font that looks really good when thin, but when I convert it to outlines it looks slightly thicker and it just ruins its look. I need to convert to outlines because I want to export as SVG which looks really sharp on a website and can be resized without pixelation.

Hi, Could you possibly tell me how to create text into a single line rather then an outline. I need to make an SVG but I need the text to be single lined. I cannot figure out how to do that anywhere. Love all your videos, they have been so helpful!!!!

I wish it will be more clear on how to do if we know already the font. I watched the whole video and I have the impression that after you found the font for free and downloaded it (it is 3 years I have it already) you didn't explain how to transform it in a vector I think and you went directly to "If we don't find the font for free" or something like that.

Freaking thank you.

It would also be great if you also navigate the other way to make the outline through clicking on the menu TYPE, then click on CREATE OUTLINE. Because sometimes, remembering CTRL+SHIFT+O, sometimes can be more difficult to remember.

Super helpful video😍😍😍

That was precise and to the point. Thanks

This was great and to the point love that
