Ever wondered how to create labels with arched text in PowerPoint. Sometimes you might need to curve your text in order to fit it on a a label. In this tutorial I’ll show you how to create a simple label in PowerPoint.
Step 1
Start by creating 2 circles, one smaller than the other. Align them center and middle (Format tab -> Align).
Step 2
Next write your text. Select the text box and go to Format tab -> Text Effect -> Transform -> Arch Up. Place the text over the top of the circle and strech it to fit the circle. Use the pink handle to further edit the text.
Step 3
To do the bottom part, just duplicate the text (CTRL + D) and select Format tab -> Text Effect -> Transform -> Arch down. Edit the text if needed, stretch and position accordingly.
Step 4
Now you can add a shape to the middle. Use one of the PowerPoint shapes or create your own shape. For demonstration purposes I used one of the build in shapes of PowerPoint.
