Howdy, Can any one suggest an easy way to place 3D text on a curve. For example: – A ball where text was carved into the equaitor. – a 3D Circle which is compriesed of curving text, each letter curves backwards a bit. – Text the wraps along a sine wave. Thanks for any advice

Martin, Actually Corel Draw seems to be the popular method of aligning text to weird paths. You just export as .AI and bring it into the shaper for lofting. You should be able to accomplish everything you asked about. Dave Mennenoh
