Frequently asked questions
- Why do print shops want outlined fonts?
- So the artwork doesn't depend on installed fonts: if the shop's RIP lacks your typeface, text gets substituted and the layout shifts. Outlines eliminate the problem entirely.
- Can the text be selected or edited afterwards?
- No — glyphs become vector shapes. That is the point; keep the source file for future edits.
- Will the appearance change?
- No, the outlines trace the original glyphs exactly, and print quality is unaffected — they are vectors, not raster.
