The Easy Way to Curve Text in Inkscape

  • There are actually several ways to curve text in Inkscape but if you want to know the easy way to curve text in Inkscape you’ve come to the right place. I can show you how to curve text in Inkscape in just a few minutes.
    Most people who teach how to do this will show you how to draw a circle and then put your text on the circle. From there you edit the circle to change the curve of the text. I really don’t like doing it that way because you cannot control the text itself. You only have control over the circle. In my method I’ll show you how to curve the text in a way you can manipulate each letter in your text. This way you can curve your text around any shape you want. Not just a circle.

    This is amazing! I knew inkscape had to have something better than just text on a circle.

And then I found this....so, so, so much easier to work!! I know you may not have the time but I really hope you can manage to show tutorials...you explain this way better than most!!!

    Crystal, I just watched your video, and I must say, you would make an excellent teacher! Your instructions were clear and precise, and your demonstration was straight to the point. Thank you very much. I now feel more confident curving text. I'm just getting into Inkscape, so I'll be definitely looking out for more of your videos. Thanks again!

    OMG, Thank you so much for this video! My PhotoShop is ancient and won't read SVGs, and my text isn't defined enough. So I'm finding myself using Inkscape a lot these days. Thanks for taking the time to make this video, it really saved me because I don't want to always rely on design space, especially now that I am getting into sublimation for family gifts this year and designing stuff.

      In order to read SVG's you need Adobe Illustrator

    • @amyholt8960
      @amyholt8960 Рік тому

      ​@@jamedlock83 Thank you. I'm not willing to pay a monthly fee. I have a Adobe PhotoShop 11 from way back that does fine for my photo editing needs that was a one time purchase. Inkscape works fine for what I need for my SVG needs as well. Just different learning it from Adobe after all these years. Appreciate the input though.

    Is there a way to precisely curve the text at its centre point so the curve is horizontally symmetric? I've been using this method to curve my text but it's hard to judge.

    If you doubleclick on that middle line, you add an extra control point, so you have even more control.

    Bending the text is easy, however the nodes stay in a straight line, so how do I bend the nodes along with the text?
