Remove an envelope

You can remove envelopes by either releasing them or expanding them. Releasing an enveloped object creates two separate objects: the object in its original state and the envelope shape. Expanding an enveloped object removes the envelope, but the object retains its distorted shape.

  • To release an envelope, select the envelope, and choose Object > Envelope Distort > Release.
  • To expand an envelope, select the envelope, and choose Object > Envelope Distort > Expand.
