How do i convert text to vector shape using fireworks cs4?

Im working on editing a picture for class and i had to add some text. The step i have to do is convert the text to a vector shape, and resize it to about 96 pixels square. I have no idea what that means or how to do it please help! Thanks in advance.|||I don't recall if you can convert text into a vector shape in Fireworks. In general, Fireworks is a PNG maker and the best you might get out of it is text that you can place with a clear background.





The only way I know how to correctly change text to vector is in Adobe Illustrator.





Illustrator instructions;


1. Type out text you want converted.


2. Right click text and select "Create Outlines"


3. Your vector text is NOW ready to use.





I may be wrong in saying that FW can't convert text to vector, but I can't find any resources on that anywhere. Illustrator is the easiest way to do it if you have it. Good Luck.
