how to make text follow a curve, like WordArt in Microsoft Word

merrill,

Pages has nothing like WordArt. A rather primitive substitute is to create as many text boxes as you have characters in your text and position and rotate the text boxes along a line.

A free third party app that's similar to WordArt is Art Text 2 LIte from the Mac App Store. It's overkill and has a learning curve, but may do the job for you.

There are other more sophisticated and costly graphics programs that will do what you want.

In all cases, Copy the result and Paste into Pages.

You can also use EazyDraw (which is available from the Apple AppStore) to place text along an arbitrary curve
