Is there a way to Ungroup Text?

Hello:
I would like to know if there is a way to Ungroup Text.
In other words ... can I type a word such as 'Love' and then make each letter a separate ... um, Object?
I have used many different key word phrases in the manual to try and find the answer to no avail.
I've read about Grouping and Ungrouping, about Text/Fonts and other such things. I suppose, I just don't know what else to read up on.
I thought that maybe I could convert the Text to an Object but that doesn't seem to be the case.
In Inkscape I go to: Path and click on: Object to Path and then I go to: Ungroup.
However, I do not know what Object to Path equals in Illustrator or even what key words to use in the Illy manual so that I can read something that could help me figure it out.
I sure do appreciate your time and assistance.
Thank you,
Kara

hello Larry,
Thank you for your response. I appreciate your time.
Guess what? I tried one more thing ... I dunno why I didn't try it as it seems it was pretty much the only thing I didn't try.
I Selected the word and then went to: Type > Create Outlines and then I went to Object > Ungroup and it worked.
However, I am not sure what Create Outlines actually does and so I will certainly be reading up on that tomorrow.
I am going to go check out your link because more than likely your info is the better and/or correct way to do what I need.
I'll return after I check out your link.
Thanks again!
WOW!! What a GREAT website full of Awesome resources, scripts etc.!! thanks so much for sharing it with me
I'm a bit too tired to ferret out the info re: my question tonight but I certainly will as soon as I can tomorrow.
Well, hope you're having a nice day/night.

  • I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone.

    I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

  • Is there a way to edit text in a smart object brought in from illustrator?

    Is there a way to edit text in a smart object brought in from illustrator? Many thanks for the help!
    And can anyone recommend learning resources for someone (me) who is an AI user for a decade who needs to work in PS for web mockups? Something other than a basic PS tutorial. Something geared towards that specific task. I'm not a PS beginner - but have mostly used it for photo correction until now.
    Truly -- thanks! BTW - I'm in the CS 6 Suite and CC will not be available to me.

    OMG! When I went back into the ai file and made sure that the text was on it's own layer (which I had not originally done) I could indeed edit the text in the file when exported to ps! This is a perfect solution for this situation. As far as the person I'm working with  - who fears ai more than anything - I can work in ai - which in many ways is so much less cumbersome than ps - and just export - clicking "preserve" layers & text editing! I hope this helps someone else! Sisham - many thanks for your help!

    Is there any way to print text messages from an iPhone 3GS?

    The only ways to print any text messages from any of the iOS devices is to either do a print screen and then print those photos, or you could look for a program called TouchCopy that will allow you to download the SMS to the computer and you can handle them from there.

  • Is there a way to allow text wrapping on the outside (parent) group label IN SSRS Bar chart?

    Hi,
    I am using SSRS 2012.  I have a series of charts that have multiple category groups.  When I preview the chart, everything looks great unless the category group label is too long.  In that case it just gets cut off.  I've tried allowing
    "wrapped text", changed interval values,font size for Y AXIS but that seems to only affect the inside (child) category group.  Is there a way to allow text wrapping on the outside (parent) group label?
    I am expecting AREA VIII  BUT it shows AR on y axis.
    I need to fix it asap.

    Hi Sukhjeet.BI,
    Actually, I can reproduced the issue in my local Reporting Services environment. If there are multiple category groups on the chart, the child category can be wrapped, but the parent category would be truncated. Based on my research, this behavior looks
    like by design. Usually, the best practice is to limiting label length and number of items, use a smaller size label font or enlarge the chart size to get the chart to display properly.
    If you have any concerns about this in Reporting Service, I would suggest you submitting a wish at

  • Is there a way to specify text-to-speech to dictate a specific line or..

    Hi guys,
    Is there a way to specify text-to-speech to dictate a specific line or page in a pdf file?
    In fact, it would be cool if text-to-speech highlighted each word that is being spoken through out the document during dictation and you could rewind, pause or fastforward the speech in real-time. Is this feature available? if not, can anyone recommend any other programs that can do this?
    thanx in advance

    Is there a way to specify text-to-speech to dictate a specific line or page in a pdf file?
    Yes!
    With fully modern Cocoa applications (like Safari, Preview, TextEdit, and Mail) you can select the line or page and then from the application menu > Services > Speech > Start Speaking Text
    You can also select and then Control-Click on the selection and then pick Speech > Start Speaking Text from the contextual menu. (Works with Safari, TextEdit, and Mail, but not Preview for PDF.)
    In fact, it would be cool if text-to-speech
    highlighted each word that is being spoken through
    out the document during dictation and you could
    rewind, pause or fastforward the speech in real-time.
    That would be cool. Are you looking for an interface enhancement, or would a talking book reader with these features be acceptable?
    Is this feature available?
    No, but you can get somewhat close to this ideal by using VoiceOver and checking Show Caption Panel.
    if not, can anyone recommend any other programs that can do this?
    I have had fair success with the Text Help Read & Write Aloud products.

  • Is there a way to make text bigger on text messages or is there a way to save messages on my computer so i can print them on my iPhone 3

    is there a way to make text bigger on text messages or is there a way to save messages on my computer so i can print them on my iPhone 3

    Zoom will enlarge anything on the screen, simply double tap with three fingers.
    To turn Zoom on/off go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom.
    Large text may also work for you.
    Settings > General > Accessibility > Large text.  Select the font size that works best for you.
    Printing or accessing text messages via the computer is not support.  Google it and you will find options.
    You can also copy and past the content into an email to send to yourself.  Then that email could be printed out.    

  • TS2755 is there a way to block texts from specific numbers to imessage with out turning imessage off?

    is there any way to block text from specific numbers to imessage without turning imessage off?

    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You can be reached by iMessage at:
    Select the right facing arrow in a blue circle next to the email address this girl is sending iMessage to and select Remove This Email.
    If she has your cell phone number, she can switch to sending iMessage to that and there will be nothing you can do, but removing the email address will prevent you from receiving an iMessage addressed to that email address.

  • Is there any way to delete text messages from the external screen of an LG EnV3?

    The internal screen of my phone doesn't work, so I've been texting from the external key pad. But my inbox has gotten full and I can't receive texts anymore. Is there any way to delete texts using only the external screen of the EnV3?

    It was awhile ago and I'm not totally sure, but I think this was discussed and the conclusion was that you can't delete texts using the external screen of the Env3. **Edit  (Found one thread: http://community.vzw.com/t5/Messaging-Text-Picture-IM-etc/No-option-to-delete-text-messages-from-front-of-LG-enV3/m-p/43042#M1684 )  It came up in one other thread that I could find and the solution was to use the internal, and similar steps were given - the only difference was using the OK for Menu and #2 for Messages, rather than the left soft key for Messages.  vWhatever works... 
    What you CAN do, is open the flip, left soft key (which is the Messages menu), and there are several options - these are the text messaging ones -
    1. New Message
    2. Inbox (#)
    3. Sent (#)
    4 Drafts (#)
    Press the right soft key (options) and your choices are:
    1.Erase Inbox
    2.Erase Sent
    3.Erase Drafts
    4.Erase All
    If you choose Erase All, then OK - it will erase all except unread messages, and locked messages. If you choose any of the numbers, then hit OK, it will erase ALL in that category, read or not, so I would choose Option 4 to erase all but the unread.
    HTH, and post back if you have further questions...
