Frequently Asked Questions

What does "font to outline" mean?

Converting fonts to outlines transforms text from editable characters into vector shapes (curves). The visual appearance stays the same, but text becomes non-editable graphic paths.

When should I convert fonts to outlines?

Use this when sending PDFs to print shops, sharing with users who may not have the fonts installed, or when you want to ensure 100% consistent rendering across all platforms.

Are my files private?

Yes! All processing happens entirely in your browser using Ghostscript WASM. Your files never leave your device.

Will file size increase?

File size may increase slightly because vector paths can take more space than font references. However, this ensures perfect rendering everywhere.
