Text in a circle
What I am looking for is the text to run horizontal and touch the circle's edge.

Hi Osrui,

I believe you'd have to have the full blown Photoshop program to do that as it requires using paths, which Elements doesn't have. Sometimes on digital scrapbooking sites you can find Text on a Path templates created in Photoshop which will work in Elements. I have a few of those and they work fine.

Here's a link to some free ones, not sure what all is included in this set, maybe there's a circle in there.

Or you can just download the zip file in this thread - unzip the psd file and add it as a layer and you'll have editable, resizable text in a circle:

Thanks, Bayla. I had downloaded several sets and wasn't sure which one was the set from that free link.
