0:00 - Converting Text into Shapes
Using the Selection Tool, click once on the text to select it. From the menu choose...
Text - Create Outlines
0:34 - Altering the Shapes
A shape is made up of one or more vector paths which themselves contain a series of anchor points.
Direct Selection Tool
This tool allows for individual anchor points to be selected and moved. To select multiple anchor points, click, drag and release with the mouse to define an area. To restrict movement to horizontal or vertical directions, hold down the Shift key while dragging the anchor points.
1:44 - Separating the Letters
The outlining process creates a compound path for each letter and groups them together. While elements within a group can be edited and moved, it is often preferable to simply break the group. To do this, right mouse click on a selected group and choose the Ungroup option.
2:19 - Changing Colour
Select one or more letters and make sure their fill is targeted. Selecting a colour within the Swatches panel will change the colour of those letters.
