The Path Text tool creates lettering that follows a set linear
path. For example, you can use the Path tool to create text that
bends to follow the curved edge of a garment.

installed for you to choose from, or you can create and save
your own shape, using the Edit Shape command.
See "Creating a Custom Text on a Path Shape".

3 Click once in the design window.
