Hi,

I am a college student. Currently I submitted an Adobe PDF (exported from Adobe Illustrator 2022) and Turnitin (a popular app to check plagiarism) cannot scan the text on my assignment. When I read the requirements, Turnitin said they only accept Adobe PDF from Acrobat.

This is when I turn on Text-only mode on Turnitin.

Then how can I export my Illustrator file as an Acrobat file? Or is there any possible way for me to convert the file to a scannable file for Turnitin?

😞 Please help me, my assignment due date is gonna be so soon. Thank you so much!

Is there text in your file or did you outline all the text?

Nobody writes an assignment in Illustrator. You just do not do that. If your assignment contains drawings, then you draw those things in Illustrator and write the text in Word and do the layout in InDesign. Or write the thing in InDesign while doing the layout.
