Using Flexi, How do I fit a word into a shape so the word becomes the shape? Or in Corel Draw.
Thanks Tom

Flexi: Create the word first.
Tweak the kerning etc if needed, secondly.
Select it all thirdly.
Fourthly, go to the "Tools" dropdown menu and click on "distort" and find whatever is closest to your wishes. Tweak the handles or boundaries of the shape. Press "enter" to register your distortion. press ctrl-z if you don't like it.
Fifthly, do it again with a different preset 'module' if needed. Press enter when done.

Thanks Ian!
I thought I would have to use the distort to match the word to the shape. I just wondered if there was a short cut to automatically squeeze the word into the shape.
