Converting text to compound curves

[B·Ware]

Is it possible to convert text to compound curves?

Not automatically, if I understand your question correctly. A Compound object/layer is created when you Alt-click on one of the Boolean icons or menu entries, but when text is converted to curves there aren’t any Boolean operations explicitly involved.

If you do a convert to curves (cmd return on a mac) each letter is converted to a separate curve or compound curve depending on the structure of the letter.  If you want all letters in one compound curve, do the convert to curve, then select all letters and do an add or a Layer > Geometry> Merge curves.
