Title: Beer label


BostonBruins37 - July 26, 2009 09:41 PM (GMT)
i am trying to make a beer label and I am having some problems with the spacing and angles of the letters. Is there a way to place text perfectly around a circle so all of the letters are at the correct angle? Here is an example of what I am talking about: http://beercansrus.com/mcart/images/hudepohl35coaster1.jpg.

I know there is the arc tool but it also distorts the letter. Is my only option doing it manually and judging with my eye.

Thanks in advance.

Not sure if this will work, but have you tried typing along a circular path?

I tried but its tough.

I tried some tutorials but the ones I found are for perfect circles. My label is an oval so its really hard to get the text to fit just right.

The tutorial I sent you should work with ovals too, but I'm not sure if that's what you mean lol
