Importing a layer from another file
In this part of the lesson, you'll import an existing layer from another file into your artwork. Although the imported layer contains the word diesel and was originally created with the Type tool, the text has been converted to a graphic. You can no longer edit it with the Type tool, but the advantage here is that you also don't have to worry about whether or not anyone who works on the file has the same font installed in order to see the image correctly.
