Design Tip of the Day: Let’s Do the Text Warp Again with Envelope Distortion
How to Warp Text in Adobe Illustrator:
Our Design Tip of the Day shows us how to use envelope distortion to warp text in pretty simple yet wicked ways. Shall we get started?
Step One: Type your desired text in a new AI document, then select Type > Create Outlines (Shift + Control + O)
Step Two: Create a shape using one of the shape tools, the pen tool or a vector.
Step Three: Drag your text on top of the shape, then select both layers. (Please note that the shape layer is on top. This is key.)
Step Five: Select Object > Envelope Distort > Make with Top Object.
Transform the shape to your liking and have a fantastic day!
