You can also change the color using the Color Palette bottom of the screen. The panel will appear on the right hand side. To access it, go to Object > Fill and Stroke. You can change the color of your shape and text by using the Fill and Stroke panel.
To keep everything uniform, use Caps for all the letters. Then, click on the document and start typing. Once you have opened your shape, go to the Create and edit text objects tool on the left side toolbar.Īt the top toolbar, click on the drop down menu for the Font Family. You can also create your own shape using the Bezier Curve for a more customized design. We are going to warp our text into a heart shape. Be sure to download and unzip your file then open Inkscape. We will be using a fun handwritten font called Amora Brush. This technique works best with a nice thick font so it’s still readable after warping. So let’s get started learning how to warp text into shapes in Inkscape.
We will be converting the text to an object so it will be easier to manipulate into a shape. This works especially well for projects such as Valentines cards, t-shirts, mugs and more. Warping text adds a new perspective to how your text is displayed. It will produce the same turning effect (no scaling/deformation, though) and keep your text editable.If you want to know how to warp text into shapes in Inkscape, then check out our tutorial. to illustrate a cartoon), you may want to use "Put on Path" (from the "Text" menu) instead of "Envelope Deformation". (Optional) Add the comic shadow effect from the original.Ī final suggestion: If you want to produce a lot of text objects with this effect (e.g. Rotate your object counter-clockwise by 15°. Sometimes, the outline of the deformed object may react in "funky ways" (like you mentioned), however, with a bit of node tweaking and moving you should be able to find a constellation in which everything looks proper. Note: You can play with the spline nodes in each path to increase the "turning effect" of the letters. At this point you have to convert the text to a path, which is a bit of a pity, as you lose editability. Style the text (black 5px stroke, vertical three-point gradient spanning the entire line height).ĭo the envelope deformation. I think for the final look this is more important than anything else. If you rotate the original by roughly 15° (clockwise), then model your envelope and finally rotate your object back, you should be fine. I think you were almost there, but ignored a slight rotation in the original.
You can definitely achieve this with "Envelope Deformation".
