Outline font problems in AI

• leewilson78

  Hi all,

  I am about to send a file to print, I tried to outline my text like I usually do, seems to not let me do it with certain fonts.

  The font in questions is MrsEavesPetiteCaps, its strange cos' the regular MrsEaves allows me too.

  Can anyone help, never come across this before?

  Thanks

  Strange... you haven't locked the layer or something have you?

  Not that I can help very much, but I can confirm that there would be no reason for AI to not allow you to create outlines from certain fonts, it must be something else.

  AI wont outline fonts whose ps or screen version is corrupt, or missing. It is to do with older fonts having different parts to do different things ie screen version for displaying on screen and PS version for use on post script devices (printers etc). Is there a warning coming up when you try to outline the font?
