Jonathan Pickup Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Have you tried Text > Text along a path... Quote Link to comment
bcd Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Yes, Text along path is much better, the path can be curved - the text can be rotated 90 to the plane of the path and both the path and the text (profile) can subsequently be edited not to mention editing properties on the fly via the object info palette. Also - if you only need 3d text surfaces this too is an option - allowing texturing and the expected 3d behaviour. Quote Link to comment
