Text Overview

You can create text objects
in several different forms. Each is a little different, though they all work in much the same way.

Simple Text

This is the original form of text in early versions of the program. With it you can create single or multiple line text blocks. For more details, see Creating simple text.

Column Text

This is identical to simple text, but with the added benefit that you set the width of the text block when you create it and the words wrap onto the next line when each line is full. You can change the length or angle of the text block at any time. For more details, see Creating column text.

Text on a Curve

Text on a curve works just like column text, but the text follows the curve of a line. For more details, see Fitting text to a curve.
