Monotype Corsiva?

hello all,

 

please excuse me, i'm rookie adobe - i've tried looking around on google , forums answer seem finding different things. have designed logo in illustrator , trying work in after effects. when made in ai, i've used font monotype corsiva, , separated of parts of logo separate layers working in ae, however, when i've brought on layers aren't bringing on characteristics i'd made them in ai; have gradient fill on text thin outline stroke - when imported it, looks fine when convert shape vector layer can use effects creates loads of groups , paths unusable , gradient lost, making single fill.

 

 

i tried make text layer within ae around this, doesn't have same fonts installed , i'm struggling find way around this. either convert text correctly or same fonts ae ai appreciated!

 

thanks, mark

the first thing should ask (if haven't already) is: do need convert illustrator art shape?. reason convert illustrator art shape if planning animate path (morph shape itself, not scale/rotation/ position can transform properties) or use shape operator things illustrator effects (only time ability apply animation) . asking because text don't convert shapes use text live text in ae (which means need original font) , animation. firstly should think how want animate , if it's necessary go through this. maybe share

 

now, if want convert illustrator art shape bare in mind gradients don't pass through. instead grey fill , can if want set gradient fill through adding under content-> add -> gradient fill.
