[Adobe Illustrator] Outline fonts in a provided PDF using Adobe Illustrator

-
I had a problem while I was working. I looked for someone with a similar problem on Google. I read K's article and I found a solution. The following article is about K.


I've got an unusual problem with a supplied PDF File that uses fonts I don't have.

Normally I'd place the PDF into Illustrator and use 'Flatten Transparency' with the 'Convert Fonts To Outlines' option to create vectors for the missing fonts. However this particular PDF file seems to have been saved with the 'Preserve Illustrator Editing' setting, so when I place it into Illustrator the illustrator data is read and I get live artwork - with the fonts replaced - instead of something I can work with, meaning that I can't replicate the type I need.

I've tried importing the PDF into inDesign and resaving as a new PDF - but Illustrator is not fooled by this clumsy and desparate ruse, and again treats the file as editable artwork with the missing fonts replaced.

How can I force Illustrator to ignore the editable capabilities of the file and just convert the fonts to outlines?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,


K

Thank you so much~!!!

Actually I was tired of thinking about design and composition in perspective. The last picture below I posted is my design and composition that I created. Of course, I referred to so many books. The last picture on this post is my first work in perspective class. I got so bad grad that I did not want. I was disappointed and shocked. After getting bad score, I decided to focus on basic skills, and I think I understand what perspecit is a little bit. So, I want to design and compose my work with perspective principles. Also, I want to learn more about perspective because I don't understand some...
