Text on a Path & Curves in Digital Image Pro

[catsun102303]

this is so funny. everytime i'm here, i marvel at the curved banner above, and i see holly anticipated me. however, the great tutorial is for photoshop. does anyone have a tutorial to do the same thing in digital image pro.

and also, you are all too much, i was trying to figure out how to write text on a path, and i saw the great tutorial for that, but once again i need one for a DIPstick like me. :)

thanks,

I'm a fellow DIPer. Love my program...DIP tutorials would be much appreciated.

I have digital image pro 10 and if you click on help and enter wrap text, that might give you what you are looking for. I have played around with it and I can get it to do some of what I like. It depends on what I am trying to wrap the text around. Every time I use the dip10 I find something new. It really is an amazing program. Hope this helps some. :)

So funny...I've tried the text-wrapping and have had no luck with it. I'm just not sure what I'm doing wrong.

i've tried wrap text, but it seems to work best going around an object rather than filling an object. i haven't found a way to fill an object with text yet. has anyone managed to do that using DIP?

thanks,

There is no way of typing text on a path for DIP. The closest it has is the shaped text boxes (like the word art ones in Microsoft WORD). I keep meaning to play with them to see what I can come up with!

Ok, the closest I can get is a bit of a pain, but interesting effect! I typed in several shaped text boxes and then lined them up (each "your text here" is one box. Sample attached

If you use the align multiple objects it not too bad!
