Importing Text
If you have text in a document that you want to use in your artwork, you can use the Place
command to import it into your document. You can import text from the following text
formats: plain text (TXT), Rich Text Format (RTF), or Microsoft Word (DOC or DOCX).
When you import text using the Place command, Illustrator creates a new type object and
places the text in it.
