: Exporting Illustrator image for CMYK printing using jpg I'm wondering if I need to convert fonts to outline when exporting to a jpg? I assume not, but it's been a while since I've had anything

I'm wondering if I need to convert fonts to outline when exporting to a jpg? I assume not, but it's been a while since I've had anything printed. I want to have the best quality but still have it be easy to send online.

I've tried a PDF but it's too large with the photos I'm using in the file.

Well JPG is not an optimal format.

PDF would be much preferred.

Anyway, when you export a JPG everything is rasterized. So, there's no specific direct need to create type outlines prior to exporting.



I don't know what online service you are using to print, but customarily PDFs for print are the size they need to be for quality reasons. Yes, they are typically larger than a JPG, but there's a valid reason why they are larger. Most print services would really prefer a quality PDF to reproduce than a jpg.
