Deleting empty type paths from artwork


    The Empty Text Paths option in the Cleanup dialog box lets you delete unused type paths and containers from your artwork. Doing so makes your artwork easier to print and reduces the file size. You can create empty type paths, for example, if you inadvertently click the Type tool in the artwork area and then choose another tool.

To delete an empty type path from your artwork:

  1. Choose Object > Path > Clean Up.
  2. Select Empty Text Paths, and click OK.
