I created a path and fitted text to that path and everthing looks great. I now want to convert it to a curve. When I do so the text tuns into the curve but no longer follows the path. It is now a straight line. It seems simple enough but I can't figure it out. Why doesn't it keep to the path when I convert it to a curve? If this can't be done is there a way to fit the "curve" text to a path without having to minipulate each letter at a time? It seems like a simple task and it's driving me nuts.
Thanks
I have the same problem and I'm using Corel Draw X5. Is this a bug in X5?
Hi Unity,
nope, still works fine in X5. Seems weird that it failed you in X4 and X5, so I guess that leads to a question: did you import your X4 workspace into X5? If so, that may be your issue. I wonder if you had a corrupt workspace in X4 which affected Converting to Curves for some reason, and you have brought that issue across to X5.
If you restart your computer holding down the F8 key and click ok to the warning that you will be reverting to the default workspace and lose any customisations....then try creating some new text on a path and converting to curves...does that work?
Best regards,Brian.
