Go to Shape Format > Text Effects > Transform and pick the effect you want. If you need very precise control or are creating a complex combination of shapes and text, you’ll want to use a third-party drawing or graphics program to create the text around your shape and then copy and paste it into your Office document. Precise angle control You can control the angle of your WordArt text in relation to your shape with precision by using the Rotate tool. Group moves and copy To move or copy multiple WordArt objects as a single shape, see Group or ungroup shapes, pictures, or other objects. In this example, WordArt is inserted four times, one for each side of the shape. Wrap around straight edges To wrap text around a shape that has straight edges, such as a rectangle, insert WordArt objects for each edge. Wrap around a circle To create text that completely circles your shape, choose Circle under Follow Path, and then drag any of the sizing handles until your WordArt is the size and shape you want. Note: Depending on your screen size, you might only see the icons for WordArt Styles.
