In Adobe Photoshop, what is the procedure to type in a circle.?

Question

To be exact... how do you place font on the shape you create? Circle or any other shape. Directly on its exterior or interior border lines. I know its possible. thanks

Answer 1

You can draw a circle from the auto shapes,
then, choose on the shape tool bar, set it to be as path
after that just click on the T for text on the path of the circle
start writing .. thats it

Answer 2

I'm an old photoshop user (as in: user of old version).
I know you can't do that in Photoshop 7, but Illustrator 10 had that.
I have no clue about CS and CS2, but the following might help you (if its implemented on those new versions, and if this is what you're using).

You create a path (vector based, not pixel based). Then, under the text tool, you will find something called "text on path". That's where the magic happens.

I cant remember I ever did that in Pshop 7, but It can be done in Illustrator 10.
Once again, not sure about the CS and CS2 series.

Answer 3

Just click on the text icon then click on the shape that you created. When the text space is on, you can start typing fonts. Edit shape's size and /or text by using the arrow on the toolbar.
Hope this will help.
