Note: Although this tutorial focuses on the process to arch text in word, you can also use it to arch your text in powerpoint. Keep in mind though that bending text is different from giving it a 3-d transformation in Word. This is accomplished through the WordArt feature in Microsoft Word, and it’s pretty easy to wrap your head around. In that situation, you can curve your words, and give them a nice angular bend. Sometimes, linear text doesn’t get the trick done in Microsoft Word.
