Optical Kerning issue when outlining and scaling
If you write something using optical kerning, copy it, paste in front and outline it, the outline matches up. However if you then scale both in pro, lets say 300%, then the live text no longer matches the outlined version (see attached example where the live text is in red and outlined vectors in black). This is causing us problems when scaling objects onto different panels but we are required to supply editable text. Logos etc are no longer exact scaled replicas!
We are using CC 2019 (as our clients need files in this format).

Well, it means then the optical kerning is relative to the objects’ text sizes then... I had this discovery made in similar conditions, and I decided never leave live text in logos after that (and all my files after that with logos have the original and the fully outlined-expanded versions next to each other).
I wonder why though...
