How to vectorize text in keynote?

Hello,
Anyone know if it is possible to vectorize a text you written in Keynote?
If it is not, anyone know an software (without being Adobe Illustrator or another big vector software) that do the task?


Thank You.

Hi Gary.
The problem is, when saving a .pdf vector file, not only on Keynote but on any vector software, the text is not transformed as a outline traced vectors.
If a PC don't have that specific font that was created the .pdf file, it substitutes that font on that .pdf file, for another one. Basically the problem is this: http://www.graphic-design-employment.com/adobe-illustrator-how-to-convert.html

On Adobe Illustrator software, there is a command that converts the Text to Outlines, and far I know Keynote doesn't has that command.


Far I know, the only solution is to use a vector software that does that. I just downloaded the trial version of "Affinity Designer" and probably I will stay with this software.
