  • Typing text in a circular path

    Posted by Wes Kane on May 16, 2006 at 8:16 pm

    Designing a logo for a company and I’m trying to type the company’s name inside a circle. Similar to the Smith & Wesson Logo, how they have the text. Well, I am not able to get the text to follow a circular path. I’ve tried the little option inside the text box window, but that doesn’t accomplish it. I’ve seen somethings about using a vector path and typing the text on top of that, but am not sure how to do it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks a bunch!

    Not having my luck. I am using Photoshop 7.0 if that makes a difference. Followed your directions to a tee, however I am not seeing that little T for the text feature.
