Hi Javabohne and welcome to PSG.

Right to convert text into apaths on illustrator you Type the text you want then select it using the black cursor, right click it and select Create Paths! thenat it!

Not sure what you mean by Object, so you need to expand! is it something you are copying in to illustrator? ie. an image?

Select the type object; then from the menu, choose: "Type," then, "Create Outlines." The text will become an object, with multiple lines and curves, fully editable, by each point or line.
