How to create text along a path?

[abmames]

Is there a plugin for creating text that follows a path created by the user? I understand how to arch text. That isn't working for my project. I need to plot a path and let the text follow it. Is this possible?

Don't think they have exactly what you want. There is a plugin called text formations. You may have to do it manually.

@dpy has created a number of text plugins (Rotate, Spiral, Wave & Circle...,).  You may have to use a combination of these to adjust your text to a specific path.

 

Find these plugins in this pack: Dpy's Plugin Pack

It depends how simple is the path, if it is like a wavy line, then Gravity plugin works but it will keep the text vertical ( do not rotate each letter individually along the curve)

 

What I mean is somthing like this:

Thanks. Im going to try the text plugins and manually adjust the text and see how that works. Thanks for the suggestions!

Hi

I am trying to get some text to follow a line using the gravity effect but I have no idea how to use it. Does the text need to be a certain colour? Or does the line I want the text to follow need to be a certain colour? Any help would be greatly appreciated

You need to work on 100% transparent layer and fill what is underneath the line, use any colors, it doesn't matter:
