How to Curve Text With WordArt
Microsoft Word uses the WordArt feature to curve text:
Open a Word document and select Insert > WordArt. You can also select the WordArt icon from the toolbar. It looks like a capital letter A. However, the icon’s appearance and location vary depending on the version and platform. In the WordArt menu, choose the WordArt style you want. Placeholder text appears in the document. Type your text over the placeholder text. Select the text to display the Drawing Tools tab. Go to either the WordArt Styles or Text Styles group, then select Text Effects, which is represented by a blue and white letter A. In Word 2016, Text Effects displays when you hover the mouse cursor over it. In earlier versions, it’s clearly labeled. Select Transform. From the submenu, choose from a variety of effects, including curved and bent text. Select an option to apply it to the text.
How to Undo Curved Text
To remove a curved or bent text effect without deleting your text:
Select the curved or bent text you want to modify. Select Text Effects. Select Transform > No Transform. The curved or bent text transformation effect is removed.
