    Illustrator Text overflowing path bounds

    It was too much text. I pasted about 300,000 characters and I guess it just gave up eventually. Making a new path and pasting in there the remaining text (cutting it short where it started to get messed up) fixed it.

    Illustrator Text overflowing path bounds

    So I made a path and did fill area with text. It's a LOT of text, and everything is fine at first, but eventually, the text starts to go through the side of the page and through my text bounds (see the attached image). How do I fix this? It's justified.

    When changing font on perfectly aligned picture, some enlarges more than others

    I decided to try it on illustrator. That's working much better.

    When changing font on perfectly aligned picture, some enlarges more than others

    On my picture, I have several text layers (it's necessary). I aligned them so that it looked like one rectangle of text via font size and stuff like that. However, I decided to change the font type so I clicked inside one layer, messed around with font size, justification settings, kerning, etc...

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    Final should be 24 x 36 inches (poster). I'm messing with the fonts right now, trying to make it more readable (I'm at like 5pt for most of it). When I changed every layer to settings that changed the font as well as spacing, leading, etc. in order for a different font to take up the same amount...

    How to drastically reduce size of large image without sacrificing quality?

    Nevermind, I just copy-pasted it to Illustrator. When I exported, it was like 12mB. Is this okay? The quality seemed about the same.

    How to drastically reduce size of large image without sacrificing quality?

    I made a poster that I am trying to have printed through Vistaprint. The issue is that they only accept uploads 12mB or less. My poster is over 150 due to it being HUGE. Is there a format or something I could choose that would make the size drastically less? I don't need layers to be remembered...

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    Here is the almost-finished version. I'm still working on text spacing. I did drop the allocation back. That wasn't the problem, since only about 60% of my RAM was being used. I think that the Photoshop text boxes simply can't handle that much text. This way works fine, though. Thanks again!

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    Using multiple text fields, it works. FYI, I did watch every tutorial you linked to and I already saw that one before. I'm not as dumb as I sound :wink: Thanks!

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    I made the video, but it needs to be approved (link). I think that you may be on to something with multiple actual text fields. Is that what you meant by pasting little by little? I thought you meant paragraph by paragraph in the same layer/field. I'll try this and edit this post so it doesn't...

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    Okay so I made a screenvideo of what happens to clear it up. http://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cIXFeJV9hM

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    Yeah, sorry if I'm not getting across. I do, but at one point, if I paste just a single line more then the entire thing is white and disappears. I can try to make a video.

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    My text size is tiny. So I got this at the top of the page. Right before it just goes to white, it looks like this It's like Photoshop can't handle the text or something. But this isn't that much text... it's less than a fourth of the way through the 300,000 character file.

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    Yeah so I started pasting little by little even more so, and it eventually gets to the second picture where the text is on top of itself. Then Photoshop just crashed. Is there a way to do it in Illustrator? Would it work better? The text file is about 390,000 characters. So really big. It's a...

    Trying to fill space around an object with text

    it should be readable. My issue now is that it seems like I have too much text and Photoshop can't handle it. I have 8gb of RAM and I've allocated 100% to Photoshop in the settings menu... it's not at 100% load, either
