Adding text and shapes

The type selection border appears in the image on the active layer.

Warping allows you to distort type to conform to a variety of shapes; for example, you can warp type in the shape of 
an arc or a wave. Warping applies to all characters in a text layer—you cannot warp individual characters. Also, you 
can’t warp faux bold text.

Select a text layer.

Do one of the following:

•

Select a type tool, and click the Warp button

 

 in the options bar.

•

Choose Layer

  > Type  > Warp Text.

Choose a warp style from the Style pop-up menu. The style determines the basic shape of the warped text.

Select an orientation for the warp effect—Horizontal or Vertical.

(Optional) Specify values for additional warping options to control the orientation and perspective of the warp 
effect:

•

Bend to specify the amount of warp.

•

Horizontal Distortion and Vertical Distortion to apply perspective to the warp.

Click OK.
