If you are using an uncommon font in your vector artwork, then there is a good chance that printer’s art department may not own that font. To avoid missing font problems, we recommend “outlining” all fonts in vector and pdf documents before submitting. This is a simple task and and can be accomplished by following these steps:

​

1. First open your vector document in illustrator and make sure that all text objects are modifiable by unlocking all of the layers. 

​

2. As an added precaution, ensure that all objects are unlocked by choosing “Unlock All” from the Object menu. 

​

3. Now just select all objects and then choose “Create Outlines” from the Type menu. Boom – all vectors!
