Hello,

I'm a beginner and would like to understand if there is a command that allows to adapt a text on a curve, the equivalent of what in Illustrator is called 'Text on a path.'
Imagine having a curve and want to scroll a text that follows the shape ..... there is no possibility of making such an operation?

thank you

Stefano

    Stefano,

    This option is directly not available inside Evolve but there is an easier way.

    Evolve can open Illustrator files as long as they are saved as Version 8. All paths and shapes are imported as curves. You can join broken curves together using 'Join Curve Entities' tool.  Below you will find steps to export your .ai file to Evolve

    1. Create your path text
    2. Convert shape to outlines.
    3. Save As
    4. Use Illustrator version 8
    5. Open file in Evolve

    Due to limitations from Adobe we cannot save a newer version and make it compatible with Evolve. I hope this workaround is useful.
