Note
Orientation of the text around the oval depends
on where you mark the reference points.
Try this!
You can adjust orientation settings at any
stage. See
Adjusting orientations
for details.
Creating custom orientations
Use Free Line orientation to shape lettering
around elements in your design. Digitize Free Line
baselines
by marking reference points to form the
required line. The number of reference points and
length of baseline are practically unlimited.
Try this! If the baseline has tight curves, or sharp
corners, the letters may overlap. For best results,
only mark curve points, and digitize lines which
have shallow, gentle curves.

Adjusting letter spacing
Letter and line spacings can be determined before
or after creating lettering objects and placing them
in your design. You can edit spacing using the
Reshape tool.
Adjusting overall letter spacing
on-screen
The spacing between letters is calculated
automatically as a percentage of the letter height.

default
spacing is adequate.
Sometimes, however, you may want to change the
overall letter spacing.
