Convert text to paths

Convert text to paths and then edit the shapes of the letters as you would any vector object. All vector-editing tools are available for text that is converted to paths.

Note: Converted text can't be edited as text.

To convert text, select Text > Convert to Paths.
To edit converted text character paths individually, use the Subselection tool to select the converted text, or select the converted text and select Modify > Ungroup.
To create a composite path from a path group that was created by converting text to paths, select the path group, select Modify > Ungroup, and then select Modify > Combine Paths > Join.
