Adobe Illustrator/Arc letters

Advertisement


Question
I am trying to arc upper the word "championship".  When I do the letters slant slightly.  Is there a better way to do this where the letters stay perectly vertical? I am using CS3

Answer
Hi Suzi,

Try using Effects>Warp and then go through the presets. There are several warping effects that leave the letters vertical. Just make sure you are not changing the scale on the vertical setting, just the horizontal.

Thanks
