i use ps 7 and the other night i was looking at some tutorials on how to make writing follow a path. so after drawing out the path i next went to the text icon "T" and dragged it over the path i made only that the cursor didn't change and when i wrote, it just went in a straight line

does anyone know why it wont follow the path? is it because its ps 7 and not cs or cs2? or is there some setting which i need to turn on/off?

I don't think it can be done with photoshop 7. I THINK you need cs or cs2.

What exactly do you mean by a "path"?

Could you show some examples?

No, he wants to make text follow a certain path, like.. letting the text follow a line made with the pen tool...

This is done as follows;

On one of your paths, attach a text layer by having the path visible (Ctrl + H) and hovering over the path with the text tool and left clicking... This will attach your text to the path.

You can write text on a path in PS7 just math a path with the pen tool and click the path with the text tool. And bingo all the text you write will follow the Path.
