Question

Help with text please!

My apologies ahead of time.  I've been out of the illustrator game for close to 15 years and recently decided to get my feet wet and try some stuff.

 

In the picture of text, the font color is white.  There's a black outline around the font.  My issue is with the red bubble around the text.  For the life of me, I can't figure out how to do that.

 

any help is appreciated!

Do not Outline the text.

Open the Appearance panel

Apply a new stroke to the text

Apply Effect > Path > Offset path to that stroke

Apply Effect > Pathfinder Add to that stroke

En suivant le conseil de @Monika Gause 

Aspect > ajoutez un nouveau contour

puis le placer sous Caractères

That's not what I wrote.

A première vue sans doute,

Texte > vectoriser

Objet > décalage ( en pt)

Pathfinder > Union (pour la partie externe)

ou encore (version modifiable):

Texte > vectoriser

Aspect > ajoutez un nouveau contour

puis le placer sous le contenu.
