ate, or format this text. All formatting and effects must be performed in the original application or publisher. For more details and procedures, see “Using Object Linking and Embedding (Windows)” on page 13.169. 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 can’t edit it in the saved file. Also, several Canvas typographic capabilities aren’t 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 doesn’t give the results that you expected.
