Grab the Horizontal Type Tool once again and click on the outer edge of the new, larger circle in order to add some text to it. Step 5: Generate Text On The Inside Of Your Circle Your text should become visible once again. To correct this, simply click and drag the new layer (in the Layers menu to the bottom-right of the screen) below the top layer so that it becomes the second layer. Your newly-created circle will probably cause the text you previously created to no longer be visible. It should be just large enough that the edge of the circle lays flush against the top of the text you’ve already created. Make this circle larger than the previous circle. Again, make sure to hold shift and alt while scaling the circle so that it locks the proportions and expands from the center of the canvas, just like you did for the first circle. Now that the top half of the text is wrapped around the outside of the circle, we’re going to work on creating some more text and wrapping it around the inside of a circle.įirst, press control + shift + N on your keyboard to create a new layer, then grab the Ellipse Tool once again and create another circle starting from the center of the page. Make sure it is placed evenly at the top of your circle. To do this, grab the Path Selection Tool (keyboard shortcut: A) and click and drag the little black node on the edge of the circle to adjust the placement of the text. Now it’s time to rotate the circle so that we can position the text exactly where we’d like it to be on the circle.
For this tutorial I’m using League Gothic, but you can use whatever font you’d like. You can adjust the font, style, size, and color of your text in the toolbar at the top of the screen. Once you begin to type, the text will be generated around the circle. This will generate a blinking cursor on the circle. Grab the Horizontal Type Tool (keyboard shortcut: T) and click on the outer edge of your circle. This will allow you to create a perfectly symmetrical circle that expands from the center of the document. While holding the click, press down on Shift and Alt on your keyboard. The tool is hidden within a sub menu of the Rectangle Tool, so be sure to right-click the tool to bring up the sub menu.īring your cursor to the center of the page, where the horizontal and vertical guides intersect, then click and drag to create an ellipse.
Now we’re going to grab the Ellipse Tool to create a circle in the center of the canvas.
