Q: How can I create curved or angled text?

A: You can create lots of fun ideas with text using the Text Effects feature. With it you can create circular text, angled text, perspectives, and text with shadows and patterned fills. Here's an example:

To apply text effects:

1) Click the Text Effect Tool on the Control Strip.

2) Click and hold the mouse button while dragging the cursor to the far corner of the Text Effect.

3) Release the mouse button. The Text Effect appears on your design with the words "Your Text Here" inserted by default.

4) Double click on the Text Effect to edit its text and properties. This will bring up a dialog which allows to change the effect, set a color for the text, and create a shadow.
