Vito Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Pretty simple question really, I was just wondering if it's possible on PDN to do text like this: Quote Click here to see my work so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Not that I know of, without placing them individually, or using a distortion that lowers the quality.... Would be very helpful to, say...Have a plugin developed for this.

someone93 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I think MadJik's polar transformation plugin will work. Just write your text on a square canvas, and then use the plugin at the option: Transform rectangular to polar. edit: I'm sure ash wrote this somewhere... edit 2: Here, I found it: ...viewtopic.php?f=12&t=23138 edit 3: Forget it, it works much better on shapes than text.

Vito Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 Thanks for that, it ends up looking sort of 3D with the polar transformation, though. I've tried placing each letter separately and it's looking decent but thanks anyway Quote Click here to see my work so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 or using a distortion that lowers the quality... Only reason I didn't mention rect to polar. Quote •♪♫♥♫♪• |- The Rules -|- çobblestones -|- CaMo -|- MeTaL -| ╠═╧╨»Φ«╨╤═╣ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zagna Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Very easy in Inkscape + Transparent background + Export in PNG + Import in PDN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curmudgeon Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 it is rather simple...I've posted an example below only part you might get stuck on, is that you need to duplicate the layer, and flip it horizontal and vertical to get it to display right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 This has gotten asked around once a week since I've been on the forum. http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=21478&p=119080&hilit=curve+text#p119080 Just follow ash's links.

Down Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Again, just distortion and manual placement. I really like that Zagna. Inkscape, huh... Quote •♪♫♥♫♪• |- The Rules -|- çobblestones -|- CaMo -|- MeTaL -| ╠═╧╨»Φ«╨╤═╣ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
