I am new to Adobe Stock and want to be a contributor. My main passion is creating social media post templates, flyers and business cards.
I have a question about vector illustrations with live text.
Is it necessary to outline text in vector templates (like Shutterstock didn't accept vector if contain live text)?
If there are vector illustrations that contain text and are not likely to be edited by the buyer, it is ok to outline the text, but what if there is social media post or Business card Buyer will definitely need to edit text.

Simply if I create a business card or leave text as editable, so adobe Stock will accept it or reject for text not being outlined?

With live text, you should only use Adobe fonts so that the buyer does not run into trouble.

Adobe, however, recommends outlining all text. https://helpx.adobe.com/lu_en/stock/contributor/help/vector-requirements.html

 

I would try, a refusal does not cost much.

Short answer: Don't add text to your vector artwork.

The customer can add what they need after purchase.

Don't overthink this. Keep it simple.
