Combining text and objects

To keep the center of each character’s baseline on the path while keeping each vertical edge in line with the path’s
center point, choose Gravity. You can control this option’s perspective effect by adjusting the arc of the text’s path.

Add anchored objects to type on a path

1 Using the Type tool or the Type On A Path tool, click an insertion point in the text where you want the anchor for

the object to appear.

2 Add the anchored object. You can add inline or above line anchored objects or frames to the path. (See

Anchored

objects

” on page 203.)

Note: The options available for above line anchored objects in a text path differ slightly from options for anchored objects
in a regular text frame: the Alignment option is relative to the anchored object marker and the Space Before option is not
available.
