Vector output of effects - outline


Recommended Posts

Yo folks,

 

i have a question. I have been trying to send my 'eejits' logo to a engraver who require a vector output. I created the logo using a font and then the outline effect. When exporting to pdf (or any other file format) the effect is nowhere to be seen. Basically I want to engrave the dark brown lines as shown in the pic.

 

Any ideas? I've tried recreating it with a stroke but it doesn't look the same.

P.S. When is .dxf going to be an export option?

Many thanks owenr!

 

That's exactly what I'm trying to do, but I can't reproduce this using your instructions. The expanded stroke doesn't look right at all. When I set the stroke with of the combined object it's all wrong (it expands both inside & out the line regardless of the settings I use. I' not using the beta. Always stick to the MAS version.....

 

Any ideas?!?

 

Cheers,

 

George
