Help with Arching words

[lam1303]

Hi. Is there a tutorial that tells how to arch words in SCAL or Inkscape. What I want is:

100 Years - top arched up
1910-2010 - straight across middle
of Scouting - arch down at the bottom

Does that make sense? Is that possible to do and have it cut correctly in SCAL 2?

Thanks for anyone that could provide some insight!

this post will show you how to do it in MSWord, Publisher etc. OpenOffice has a similar function called fontworks

then you can bring a screen shot and trace in scal2 or
print to svg
