Here’s a simple and quick guide on how to arc text in Adobe InDesign:
- To arc text in your InDesign project, go to the left toolbar and select the 'Line' Tool.
- Draw a line on your workspace. Then, from the left toolbar, select 'Pen' Tool → 'Add Anchor Point' Tool and add an anchor point to the line.
- Using the 'Pen' Tool, place an anchor point in the middle of the line.
- Go to the left toolbar and select the 'Direct Selection' Tool, then drag a selection box over the middle anchor point of the line.
- Press 'Shift + Up/Down Arrow' to move the middle anchor point up or down.
- To create the arc, select the 'Pen' Tool, hold Option, and drag the anchor point until the line forms an arc shape.
- Once the arc is created, select 'Type' Tool → 'Type on a Path' Tool and type text along the curve.
- Once finished, select the line and remove its stroke to make the path invisible, so the text appears without a visible line.
- You have successfully arced text in your InDesign project.
