STEP 6:

With the (invisible) text still highlighted, click "Text Outline". Then select black colour on the colour palette. The text will reappear with outline only.

STEP 7:

With the text still highlighted, right-click on the outline of the text box.

Your text has now been converted to SVG format. If you are doing this to create cut files, then simply open the newly saved SVG file with your cutting machine's software and you should be able to immediately export it to any cut file format of your cutting machine.
