Cropping a Circle and Rotating Text

Hello,

I would like to cut out a perfect circle on a digital picture and rotate text around the circle. I have not been able to find a clean way of doing this.

Thank you!

Illustrator would be the best program for circling text. PS doesnt have a "great" way of doing it. You can manually type in each letter on its own layer and rotate the letter. Its a bit tedious if you have a lot of text or many to do.

For the circle just use the Circle selection tool and copy the circle you need to a new layer, hide the original layer or create a new layer with the color/BG you want.

if you use the polar cordinates filter in Photoshop you can get the effect of perfectly rounded text but it can be a pain in the butt so mess around with it it might be what you are looking for
