Let’s jump in!

First, we select the text that we’d like to create the curve effect.

Then click on the Effects option located above your design.

This will open all Text Effect Options.

Next, click on Curve Effect and this will open the curve scale line located just below the Curve Effect box. We can easily curve the text up or down by dragging the scale line from side to side. It will curve text from -100 to 100. Or we can enter a number in the box and press Enter.

I set mine at 20, as displayed in the image below.

Easy peasy!

This is what it looks like.

And we’re done!
