You can edit vector text by converting it to curves and then adding, deleting, and moving nodes. Nodes are the tiny squares that appear along the object’s outline.
You can convert letters to individual curve objects, or you can convert the entire string of text into one curve object, with each letter as a separate contour within the object path.
To convert vector text to curves
Edit workspace
1 On the Tools toolbar, choose the Pick tool .
2 Select the text.
3 Do one of the following:
• To convert the entire text object into one vector object, choose ObjectsConvert Text to CurvesAs Single Shape. This command produces one path containing a contour for each letter.
• To convert each letter to a separate vector object with its own path, choose ObjectsConvert Text to CurvesAs Character Shapes.A vector layer is created for each letter, and the layers are grouped in the Layers palette.
If you convert each letter to a separate vector object, you must select the letters individually in order to edit the nodes.
You can edit a curve object by using the Pen tool in Edit mode. For more information, see Adding and closing contours.
