PDF Export Question

[zee]

Whenever I export to PDF, I check the "convert text into shapes" in the PDF dialog box.

Is this accomplishing the same things as Xtreme's "convert to editable shapes" option or is there something else that I should be aware of?

I use the PDF option so that I don't have to worry about saving the .xar file with text converted to shapes by mistake and not being able to edit the text later.
