Adobe Illustrator is a widely-used vector graphics editor software developed and marketed by Adobe Inc. It is used by graphic designers and artists to create logos, icons, illustrations, typography, and more. One common task in graphic design is to italicize text.

It is a relatively simple process that can be completed in a few steps. This technique can be particularly useful for designers who need to create italicized text without having to purchase additional software or plugins.
