How to Convert fonts to outlines

How can I do convertion text to outlines and save in file?

Hello drlex,

You can not do this in the Editor alone, but you can "reprint" your file - and at print time select to render all text as outlines:

Hmm...
Not so good way to do it wia print. Why? Size (H,W) changed to printer size like A4...

Hi DrLex,

Yes - it is not ideal indeed! But is what I could think of as a workaround.
If the paper size is important - you can set up custom sizes in your printer drivers with exactly the desired values.

Thanks.
With PDF-XChange Editor can't see way to do it properly.
More workable decision to use manual or autmation variant with Acrobat DC.

Code: Select all

Dim cur As New ProcessStartInfo
            If Directory.Exists(sTemp) AndAlso Directory.GetFiles(sTemp).Length > 0 Then
                                For Each FileName As String In Directory.GetFiles(sTemp)
                    'Dim fi As New FileInfo(FileName)
                    'Select Case fi.Extension
                    'Case ".pdf"
                    cur.FileName = """C:\Program Files\Convert fonts to outlines.exe"""
                    cur.Arguments = """" & (FileName) & """"
                    cur.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Normal
                    cur.UseShellExecute = False
                    cur.RedirectStandardInput = True
                    cur.RedirectStandardError = True
                    cur.RedirectStandardOutput = True
                    Dim processcur As Process
                    processcur = Process.Start(cur)
                    Dim ExplorerHandle As IntPtr = Ico.NativeMethods.FindWindow("AcrobatSDIWindow", vbNullString)
                    Ico.NativeMethods.ShowWindow(ExplorerHandle, Ico.NativeMethods.ShowWindowCommands.SW_HIDE)
                    processcur.WaitForExit()
                    'End Select
                Next
