Arc text lets shoppers enter words that follow a curved baseline on the product. You control the curve and typography while they supply the text.
Use it to place a name around an illustration or create a curved slogan above or below a design.
How to set it up
- Choose Add → Placement → Arc text and set its Label.
- Move the placement to the intended area and enter Preview text for design testing.
- Open Typography and adjust Curve, the font and its size. Review rotation and alignment in the layout controls.
- Set Max characters and Required as needed. Where available, enable the typography choices you want shoppers to control.
- Save and Preview several text lengths alongside any neighboring artwork.
Frequent uses
Use Arc text for a curved hoodie slogan, a family name around a motif or lettering that frames a circular badge. Combine it with a Design placement for a coordinated composition.
Use Text box for straight text or where a curve adds no value to the design.
Check before publishing
A longer word changes the occupied arc. Test your maximum allowed length and check that letters do not collide with the design or leave the intended area.
The curve is a visual layout, not a simulation of engraving around a three-dimensional object. Review the print output against your production requirements.
