You can convert outline fonts into standard Designer objects. This lets you reshape text just as you would any other Designer object.
Converting text to curves is useful when you want to reshape text or create a drawing that can be opened on a computer that does not have the original typeface. You can convert both freeform and block text to curves.
All fonts included with Designer are scalable outline fonts. The most common outline fonts are TrueType and Type 1. If you try to convert a non-outline font, Designer substitutes the default font before converting it.
After you convert text to curves, the objects are no longer text objects. You cannot insert or delete text, check the spelling, change any of the paragraph options, or make any other text edits. Text converted to object outlines can be changed back to text only with the Undo command.
