If you convert text to shape in Illustrator, you no longer can edit it as a text, but you get something else in return: total freedom in reshaping and styling the outlines. In this video tutorial, you’ll learn how to vectorize text in Illustrator, and how to solve a certain problem that can happen in the process.
