    LiveType – Creating Text on a Curve


    LiveType can easily create text on a curve. What isn’t easy is figuring out how.

    LiveType

    All text in LiveType sits on a blue baseline.

    A flat, blue baseline.

    However, getting the blue baseline to curve is easy – IF you know where to click and what to do.

    • Control-click the end dot of the baseline and select Curve In.
    • About an inch away from the end of the blue baseline a small blue dot will appear.
    • Grab the dot and drag it. As you do, the blue baseline will curve.

    Ta-DAH!
