Editing text
Once you have selected type, you can use any standard word-processing method to edit the text.
You can use the Cut, Copy, Paste, Clear, and Select All commands in the Edit menu to copy type from Illustrator to other applications, to bring type from another application into an Illustrator file, or to edit type within an Illustrator file. When you use the Copy command to copy type to and from other applications, you copy only the characters, not the styles.
Illustrator also includes commands designed specifically for editing blocks of type. These tools enable you to check your spelling, find and replace text, modify capitalization, and add typographically correct punctuation marks in your text.
