If you could provide the information to do the same in Intellicad, it would
be welcome and probably useful to many members of the group. I have
tried to find the convert text to vectors function several times and cannot
seem to make it happen.

Autodesk has recently made a big stink about their software NOT being
transferrable from one licensee to another. (I know, consider their beginnings)
There is standing policy of rejection at Ebay of auctions of Acad software.
Since the group has a strong antipiracy stance, it further brings into
question the support of Autocad users that cannot get direct support from
their rep or from Autodesk.
