Yes but it will cost you some in file size. Select and break the text apart

(ctrl-B) to reduce it to a fill. Grab the ink bottle, set the line color

and thickness, and click on the fill. On a letter such as "o" you will have

to click once on the outside and once on the inside. The file size cost is

that the letters are no longer symbols and hence their shapes must be

stored for each instance.
