| This Tutorial will show you how to create a curve isolated
only to bottom of text. |
| |
|
| |
| 1.) Create a new file. Go to File > New.
Make it 500 X 230 pixels on a white background at 72 dpi then hit OK. |
| |
| 2.) Select the Text
tool and type your text. I used Impact 140pt smooth. (Position it in the upper section of work area.) |
| |
|
| |
| 3.) Select the Elliptical Marquee
tool. Now,in the Layers palette, click on the New
Layer icon to create a new layer. Draw a cirle to create an arc
under your text. Select a contrasting color in the Foreground color box then go to Edit > Stoke. Use 1px and 100% opacity, then hit OK. (Ctrl + D) to de-select. |
| |
|
| |
| 4.) In the layers palette,
click on the text layer. Now go to Layer > Text
> Create Work Path. Drag text layer to trash can,
as we will no longer need it. |
| |
|
| |
| 5.) Select the Magnifier
tool and click once on work area to enlarge for viewing. Next, select
the Direct Selection tool. |
| |
|
| |
| 6.) Now, for the magic... |
| |
| Click on a line to the first letter you would like to
change. (The registration points will appear.) |
|
| Use (Ctrl + T) to activate
the Free Transform bounding box. |
| |
| Click on bottom center point and drag straight down until
a corner of the text reaches the arc, then press Enter. |
| |
| Click on opposite registration point and drag to meet
arc, then click on blank spot of work area to de-select. |
| |
| Below are these four steps in sequence. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| 7.) Repeat
Step 6 until all letters have been transformed. Then,
drag arc layer to trash can, we will no longer need it. |
| |
8.) Next, Use (Ctrl
+ Enter) to turn path into a selection. (This will
begin the marching ants.)
|
| |
|
| |
| 9.) In the Layers palette,
click on the New Layer icon. Select a color of your choice
in the Foreground color box and use (Alt
+ Backspace) to fill. Use (Ctrl +
D) to de-select. |
| |
| There you have it, text is now complete. |
| |
|
| |
| I had a little fun with the text for my presentation image
and these are the settings I used: |
| Stroke: Color #FFFF00 Size 3px |
| Gradient Overlay: Default 100% opacity |
| Color Overlay: Color #0033CC 50% opacity |
