The FlashText Attributes aren't exposed in Scriptographer. I was able to open a file in a text editor and change the values.

• Create a new document with a single text object
• Save as an .ai file WITHOUT compression or PDF compatibility
• Open in a text editor and search for: %AI5_BeginLayer
• You'll see something like:
%AI5_BeginLayer
1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 79 128 255 0 50 0 Lb
(Layer 1) Ln
%_/ArtDictionary :
%_/XMLUID : (Layer_1) ; (AI10_ArtUID) ,
%_;
%_
0 A
0 Xw
/AI11Text :
0 /FreeUndo ,
0 /FrameIndex ,
0 /StoryIndex ,
2 /TextAntialiasing ,
;

0 1 0 0 0 Xy
0 J 0 j 1 w 10 M []0 d
0 XR
0 0 Xd
6 () XW
LB
%AI5_EndLayer--

• Replace this with:
%AI5_BeginLayer
1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 79 128 255 0 50 0 Lb
(Layer 1) Ln
%_/ArtDictionary :
%_/XMLUID : (Layer_1) ; (AI10_ArtUID) ,
%_;
%_
0 A
0 Xw
/AI11Text :
0 /FreeUndo ,
0 /FrameIndex ,
0 /StoryIndex ,
2 /TextAntialiasing ,
;

%_/ArtDictionary :
%_/Dictionary :
%_1 /Int (Type) ,
%_() /UnicodeString (EmbeddedChars) ,
%_9 /Int (RenderingType) ,
%_0 /Bool (HasBorder) ,
%_1 /Bool (IsSelectable) ,
%_() /UnicodeString (Target) ,
%_() /UnicodeString (URL) ,
%_(_txt) /UnicodeString (InstanceName) ,
%_() /UnicodeString (EmbeddedCharSets) ,
%_0 /Bool (HasEmbeddedChars) ,
%_0 /Int (CustomAntialiasSharpness) ,
%_0 /Int (CustomAntialiasThickness) ,
%_; (FlashTextAttributes) ,

• Save, and open in Illustrator

Hi,
If you wanna save these complicated steps and find a easy way, you can google PDF to image Converter and you will find many useful tools, or google how to convert PDF to word and vice versa to get instructive articles. I think PDF conversion programmes can enable to quickly convert files. i have use PDF converter which can original layouts hyperlinks, Images and tables retained in word ,text, image, Epub, html.but i forgot download the wedsite ,go to google. By the way , pay attention to your system platform, select the suitable one . I use a PDF converter driver found on the internet . Install it and it becomes a selectable converter option.Then you can convert PDFs to many forms in any program at all, including Adobe Acrobat . Just open a PDF, select convert, and choice a form you want, then you can do pdf to word conversion and vice versa,the task will be finished in several seconds. if you haven't found a good choice , you can have a try. best wishes.

Best regards,
Peter
