How to Create Sliced Text in Adobe Illustrator Tutorial

Learn how to easily create sliced text inside Adobe Illustrator

This tutorial for Adobe Illustrator goes over how to create sliced text using the pathfinder window. This effect is actually pretty darn easy to create once you know how to do it, and the end result can add quite a bit of visual flair to your typography project.
This video covers creating the line to cut your text with, using divide in the pathfinder window to cut the text, different methods for stylizing and working with your type, and how to fine tune the finishing touches.
I try not to skip over any of the major parts of creating this effect to hopefully make this Adobe Illustrator tutorial beginner friendly.

    “The filter produced no result. please select one or more filled part” I get this every time I press divide

    @Beckham Kellan I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

I also want to insert a red chili pepper (created in Ps) between the bisected letters. What's the best format for the chili pepper file to be in so I can manipulate and perfectly place it?
