Rounded text vectorization not working

[vincentl401883]

Has anyone ever encountered this rounded text vectorization problem? as you will see on the image the vectorized rounded text does not correspond at all to the non-vectorized text??

Hi @vincentl401883 ,

Let's confirm that the font is not corrupt in any way.

Try another typeface and see if you encounter the same problem

Let us know how you go.

You should never vectorize text in InDesign as it causel a bunch of destructive problems. Some are intended, some are caused by bugs.

If you need to vectorize text, open the file in Acrobat Pro and there is in Print Production > Preflight > 2015 Group

a command to vectorize (outline) text.

Hello, thanks, it 's the same with other adobe font..

it 's new, i haven't this problem in the precedent indesign version...

I vectorize all texts for some sticker print file only with indesign (and before with quark), I never encounter problem (except with text contain gradient color). But your Acrobat solution is good and right for this rounded text ! Thanks

Hi @vincentl401883 ,

I think your issue is showing a well-known bug.

To workaround this:

[1] Scale the object on your page to e.g. 1000%.

[2] Convert text to outlines

[3] Scale it back to e.g. 10%

See this discussion where something similar happened:
