2. Re: warping text to shape?
rcraighead Jul 5, 2012 9:16 AM (in response to phyllisj9)1. Type your text vertically (as you've done with "HAT")
2. Use "Object>Envelope Distort>Make With Mesh". Choose "1 column and 1 row".
3. Adjust the mesh corner points to match the surface you want the text to match.
You can select more than one mesh point and control them as one using any of the move or transform tools. You can also use the Free Transform Tool very effectivelly to distort the whole mesh object. If you're not familiar with the Free Transform Tool modifyer key options read about it online.
Hope this helps.
Larry beat me.
