Last updated on November 22, 2022 @ 3:36 am

There are a few different ways that you can put text on a path in Photoshop. One way is to use the Type on a Path Tool, which can be found in the Tools palette. To use this tool, first make sure that you have a path selected. Then, click on the Type on a Path Tool and click on the path where you want your text to start.

You will then see a blinking cursor appear on the path. You can then type your text. When you are finished, press Enter/Return to deselect the text.

Another way to put text on a path is to use the Text Layer command in the Layer menu. First, create a new text layer by clicking on the “T” icon in the Layers palette.

Then, click on the Text Layer command in the Layer menu and select “Create Work Path.” This will create a work path from your text layer that you can then use the Type on a Path Tool with.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, you can easily create a Photoshop text on a path that is not straight. Be sure to use the Pen tool to create a path that is perfectly straight before adding your text. Otherwise, your text will look crooked.

You can also style your text using HTML tags. To make text bold, you would use the < b > tag.
To make text italicized, you would use the < i > tag.And to underline text, you would use the < u > tag.

In conclusion, there are a few different ways that you can put text on a path in Photoshop. You can use the Type on a Path Tool, the Text Layer command, or HTML tags.
