If you have some time designing, you should turn all fonts into curves already. But if you’re one of the newbies around (specially when we talk about web designing) you could have noticed that fonts change when you try to print them.
This is because it’s not the same font as the one you’ve used in your design. The ideal thing would tell everybody to get your same font so we all could have it, but it’s not always like this. This is why when we open it, it converts itself into a default font from the system.
There’s a solution for everything, with Adobe Illustrator you’ll be able to convert fonts into curves.
And what does this mean?
It’s all about transforming fonts into paths. This way anywhere where your design is opened, it’ll always have the same fonts. Attention, once the fonts are curved, you won’t be able to edit the text anymore.

We have three ways of doing this:
- With the shortcut shift +ctrl++ O
- Right Click \ Create Outlines
- Menu Type\ Type \ Create Outlines
Any of these three forms do the same function as long as you have the text selected.

It’s true that a design for a web page has pretty, it’s not the most important thing for the user. Even when this affects the user, given that this is the first impression he/she will remember of the site. If the design is confortable, the user will stay there, but even more when the site is user-friendly. Trust me, there are millions of web sites out there with highly complicated navigation ways, and people don’t like to break a sweat when surfing.
What do you think will make people come back to your site? It’s the content. The very same thing that make the Googlebots come back to your site, it’s just the same things your readers will do. A site with good content, and daily updated will make people come back. It’s important to know that people like to visit interesting and informative web sites, but never a web site that was last updated 5 years ago!
