How Adobe Illustrator writes PDFs
- • Text may be live text or outlines.
- • Artwork is layered around the text.
What that means when you underline text
- • Live text can be edited; text converted to outlines is drawing, not text, and cannot be edited.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • The underline follows the text's colour and position.
- • Underlines move with their words when text reflows.
