Spreadshirt says "graphics and text must be in curves!" I am just learning how to use this and don't know what the heck they mean by curves. Can someone help?

basically when you type something in illustrator it's a font. Select all and Go to the type menu when your artwork is complete, and select create outlines, this thens turns the fonts into just lineart so who ever is printing it doesn't need th all the fonts sent with the artwork, this is what they mean by curves.

"create outlines" is grayed out. Is that because I am using a trial version of Illustrator?

youo must select the text first otherwise it will be greyed out, almost certain you can do this in the trial version

The text is selected but about half the options under "type" are grayed out

try right clicking on the text box and selecting create outlines.

That doesn't work either. I do appreciate the efforts of everyone.

if you must have the font converted, you can email me the file, and ill convert it to outlines for you. PM me if you'd like me to.
