This tutorial will show you how to create Area Text, also known as Text in a Path. Area Text allows you to constrain text within the area of a closed path or object.

This tutorial will teach you how to remove text from a path. We will use Microsoft Expression Graphic Designer’s Release Text function to separate previously attached text.

In our previous tutorial, we explored the first method and combined separate text and path. This guide will show you how to add text directly onto a path.

This tutorial will teach you how to attach text to a path. A path can be either a complicated B-spline curve, a simple object path, or text that has been converted to a path. We will use text on a path to add an a bit of flair to an imaginary advertising piece.
