ate, or format this text. All formatting and effects must be performed

Exporting text from Canvas documents
You can copy text from Canvas and paste it into other applications
using the Clipboard. In addition, you can use the Canvas file filters to
save selections and documents in other file formats; see File and
data exchange on page 13.145. Keep in mind that if you save a doc-
ument containing text, and use a format that supports only raster
images, Canvas rasterizes the text before saving the file, so you cant
edit it in the saved file.
Also, several Canvas typographic capabilities arent available in
other applications. For example, character inks and strokes, text
typed on a path, and wrapped text are unlikely to convert reliably. In
some cases, such as rotated text, the export filters might rasterize the
characters, and you will not be able to edit them as text.
To export text to other file formats
1
Choose File > Save As.
2
In the File Format (Mac) or Save as type (Windows) pop-up
menu, choose a file format. Type a name for the file, and then click
Save.
Note: Canvas warns you that saving files in other formats might
result in a loss of some information whenever you save using a for-
mat other than Canvas 6.
Tip
Always save a copy in Canvas
format of files you want to
export, in case the file conver-
sion doesnt give the results
that you expected.
