The principle is similar with vector graphics. You just need to store
the vector data somewhere in a stack.

What does the PDF library do with text? Convert it to raster? You can find out.
Export to PDF and then open it with a PDF editor. See if you can select the
text itself. If the text is selectable, it hasn't done a conversion. If the
text is a bunch of vector objects however, you may be in busines
Copy/Pasting Unicode text into Open Office Draw or Office Libre Draw
allows the textbox to be exported as either EPS or SVG.
All of these observations are really tangential as one cannot EXPORT
text as a vector image directly from Livecode.

If I either type or copy/paste some Unicode text into Inkscape it
can pump out a vector image of the text "there-and-then".
As Inkscape is Open Source, presumably, those who know what they are

As far as I remember Fontographer (I own the Mac Classic version!)
is quite capable of exporting glyphs as some sort of vector file . . .
