Im trying to export as a SVG file and whenever i try and do that the the image changes. The font no longer stays where it is supposed to be and the outline and inside of the font are no longer in line. so it looks like it is on the iamge twice now. (See uploaded image)

How do i fix this!

I need it exported into a vector file as i am sending it to a print shop to be put on tshirts and they need it in a vector file. Im very new to illustrator and truly have no clue what im doing!

On top of what Bobby wrote: check the Decimals setting. It might need a higher value.

It looks like you're exporting a logo. In my opinion such assets should be saved with any live type objects converted to outlines. The same goes for any live line strokes and other live effects. Those items should be expanded to make all shapes in the artwork raw vector outlines with fills and no strokes. That kind of artwork should be able to be exported in SVG format without any problem and be able to be scaled up or down to any size on any web page.
