Certain types of objects, such as type, bitmap images, and brushes, cannot be directly made into Live Paint groups. You
first need to convert these objects into paths. For example, if you try to convert an object that uses brushes or effects,
the complex visual appearance is lost in the conversion to Live Paint. However, you can retain much of the appearance
by first converting the objects to regular paths and then converting the resulting paths to Live Paint.note: When you
convert artwork to a Live Paint group, you cannot return the artwork to its original state. You can expand the group into
its individual components, or release the group back to its original paths with no fill and a .5 black stroke.

Keys for working with Live Paint groups
Create a Live Paint group
1 Select one or more paths, compound paths, or both.
2 Do one of the following:
Choose Object > Live Paint > Make.
Select the Live Paint Bucket tool and click the selected object.
Note: Certain properties may be lost in the conversion to a Live Paint group, such as transparency and effects, while other
objects cannot be converted (such as type, bitmap images, and brushes).
Convert objects to Live Paint groups
Do any of the following for objects that do not directly convert to Live Paint groups:
For type objects, choose Type > Create Outlines. Then make the resulting paths into a Live Paint group.
For bitmap images, choose Object > Live Trace > Make And Convert To Live Paint.
For other objects, choose Object > Expand. Then make the resulting paths into a Live Paint group.
Expand or release a Live Paint group
Releasing a Live Paint group changes it to one or more ordinary paths with no fill and a .5-point black stroke. Expanding
a Live Paint group changes it to one or more ordinary paths that are visually similar to the Live Paint group, but are now
separate filled and stroked paths. You can use the Group Selection tool to select and modify these paths separately.
1 Select the Live Paint group.
