Warn about text elements in a document
Greetings, team. I have a suggestion to enhance your fantastic design software. I frequently work with tiny text elements in my vector art designs for textile sublimation. The challenge lies in the sheer volume of items I create daily, each with various sizes and variations. Sometimes, I inadvertently include text within the art, only to notice it after printing. To address this, I propose the creation of a 'guide text' feature. This text could be visible during the design process but excluded from the final print. Alternatively, a warning could be implemented to alert users when text is present within the art. Thank you for considering my suggestion

Hans, there are several existing approaches you can use to avoid text getting into your final files.
1. Put all these guiding text into a separate layer, open the layer’s options (just by double-clicking it in Layers) and disable 'Print' option. This would apply only to direct printing though.
2. Before making a final document, ready to be sent to printing, go Select > Object > All Text Objects — and either hide or delete them. Before doing this, you might want to Unlock Al (and unlock all layers), since some text can be locked and excluded for selection then. This can be recorded into an action most likely.
3. Before submitting a document, open Document Info panel, switch it to Objects mode, using the panel’s menu, and check if you have All Type Objects as NONE, to make sure you really don’t have them.
Do these help?
