InDesign: Paragraph on a curve

• biusness

  Hi all,

  Does anyone know of any scripts/shortcuts to create paragraphs on a curve/path in InDesign/Illustrator?

  Currently having to draw individual circles and flow each line of text to the next one by one.

  This is a nightmare if you want to change text size/leading/paragraph settings etc.

  I've done it many times and that's the way we do it.
  I give the different leadings to our exhibit designer and she makes that grid. We [graphics] then establish it for the text box by pasting the text and linking each line of the grid to flow the content. However, although not sure what your intentions are with it, but looking at that sample i'd shorten the line width by more than half :)

  cheers man!
  Curve text is a fucking nightmare and annoying!
