curved text?

[frontierrots]

I am trying to apply curved text INSIDE a circle

I need text at top to be inside circle and read left to right

I need text at bottom to be inside circle and read left to right

I have sort of figured out the top line but the bottom continues to baffle. It is always outside the circle and is upside down and reads right to left

I have read EVERY owners manual and help item and none apply or work for me

yes I am dumb

but can someone explain this simply?

I have paint shop pro x9 and windows 8.1

I’ve tried several of those and failed
I’ve contacted Corel tech support they have also failed to make it work

One of those links though I’ve never seen so will try that one next!!
Thanks

[frontierrots]

Sadly no
None of those work
The path never reversed no matter how meticulously I follow instructions nor is it in the circle
Maybe my pro x 9 is defectivr

[frontierrots]

I sent it to a friend with same version and she did it with me reading instructions so my program is defective!
I’ll reinstall

Thank you!!

Congratulations !! Good detecting! Hope it is not something with your system. Also hope it is not something with your "downloaded" version of X9 or did you have a disc?

Just another quick link

This shows a number of ways of placing text on a curve . Unfortunately that site will be taken down at the end of 2017 so you had better get some copies of pages or the site before that happens.
