Outline mode
To change the current document to Outline mode, choose View ➪ Outline. If you
are already in Outline mode, the view menu contains only an option to change
to Preview mode. In Outline mode, the illustration disappears and is replaced
onscreen by outlines of all the filled and stroked paths. Text that has yet to be
converted into outlines looks fine, although it is always black. Depending on your
choice in the Document Setup dialog box (choose File ➪ Document Setup), a placed
image is displayed as a box (if Show Placed Images option is not checked) or as a
black-and-white-only image surrounded by a box (if Show Placed Images option is
checked).
