Apr 03, 2018 The Curve tool can be found in the Text Edit bar at the top of the Canvas, between the Alignment and Advanced tools. 1: Add Your Text Click on the text icon, and type whatever your heart desires, for this project we will be using the words 'Happy Birthday'.
- Let's look at how easy this process is to curve any text within Cricut Design Space. First, open up a new project in Design Space. Upload the SVG Cut File that you'd like to use. We are using the Welcome To Our Home SVG Design which is part of the December 2019 Bundle.
- To get your text to follow a curved path, you'll want to select one of the options from the 'Follow path' section of the menu. You can choose whether you want your text to curve up, down, or all around. Click to make your selection, and you'll see your text automatically warped in the direction of your choosing.
You can now curve text in Cricut Design Space!
This is a new feature, so here's what I've learned so far…
Key takeaways
- Only on the desktop version of Design Space (more on that below)
- You can curve one line of text at a time
- System fonts should work (though I think this is always rolling the dice, depending on well crafted and coded a font is)
- You'll be able to set the curve with a sliding bar as well as text entry (like you can adjust font size with a plus/minus button or just enter the number in the setting box)
- You'll be able to adjust the curve once it's been applied
- You can ungroup curved letters if you want to manipulate them individually
- The only curve shape right now is a circle

Curved text and the Design Space app
Right now, the Curve Text feature is not available on the app. Not only is it not available, you won't be able to open any project with curved text. The only way you'll be able to open a curved text project in the Design Space mobile app is if you've welded or flattened the curved text. You will not be able to edit the curved text or adjust the curve in the app.
How to use the Curve Text feature
Once you've entered your text, just select the the text box. The Curve tool is on the Edit toolbar between Alignment and Advanced.
When you click on the Curve tool, a setting window will pop up so you can set the curve. If you drag the slider to the left, the ends of the line of text curve up; if you drag the slider to the right, the text curves down. The further you pull the slider in either direction, the more pronounced the curve.
Spread the news! Are you excited that Curve text is finally here?! 🙂
