Exporting text
You can drag text to export it if the destination application supports the drag-and-drop text
feature. You can also export text by using the Copy and Paste commands or by using the Export
dialog box. You can export rich text format (RTF) text with formatting intact; however, the
Outline, Subscript, and Superscript effects are not maintained on export.
You can export text with inline graphics for use with other applications, including FreeHand
versions 8 and later, and in the EPS export format (except Photoshop 3 EPS format), or in any
bitmap format (BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, PSD, Targa, and TIFF). You can also export text with
inline graphics in PDF or SWF format.
To export a text file with inline graphics to Illustrator or Photoshop 3 EPS export format, convert
the text with inline graphics to paths.
If you export a file containing text with inline graphics to a file format that does not support
graphics, bullets replace the inline graphics in the exported file.
To export text files:
1
Select File > Export.
2
In the Export dialog box, name the text file and select a location for it.
3
Select RTF text or ASCII text from the Save As Type (Windows) or Format (Macintosh)
menu, and click Save (Windows) or Export. (Macintosh).
Only text (no graphics) is included in the exported document. Linked text blocks export in the
order that they are linked. Unlinked text blocks export in their stacking order from back to front,
first page to last page.
