Vectorizing text in Figma ensures it maintains shape and quality at any size, making it ideal for scalable designs like logos or icons. If you’re trying to vectorize text in Figma, this guide featuring a simple demonstration will get you covered.
Vectorize Text in Figma
- Open Figma on your browser and open the design you’re working on from Recently viewed.
- After the design is loaded, click on the text box to select it. To add a textbox, press T and type text inside it.
- Once it is selected, right-click on it to display its associated options, from which click on Flatten.
Pro Tip: You can also flatten the selected layer by pressing key combinations – Ctrl + E on Windows and Command + E on macOS.
- By doing so, you can notice that the text inside the text box is converted to a vector. If you aren’t sure, double-click on the text, and you will find that the text has anchor points added.
Wrapping Up
Congratulations on learning how to vectorize text in Figma!
While the vectorizing text is straightforward with the Flatten tool, it is important to remember that there isn’t an option to unflatten. You can undo the action or revert to an older version, which can delete your progress, so be sure before you vectorize the text.
