This is what we'll create in this episode, a round coffee shop stamp with circular text following the edge, using the Type on Path tool. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Illustrator series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Text doesn't have to be straight. With the Type on Path tool, text follows any path shape, including a circle. This technique is essential for stamps, seals, and vintage logos.
Draw two concentric circles in brown as the outer and inner rings of the stamp. Then draw a third circle between them, without fill and without stroke, as the text path.
Select the Type on Path tool from the Type tool group. Hover the cursor over the path circle's edge, the cursor changes to show a curved line. Click on the top part of the circle.
Type our coffee shop name in capital letters with wide tracking. The text follows the circle's curve. The path automatically loses its color, which is only visible as the text.
With the Selection tool, drag the small bracket at the beginning of the text to rotate its position. Adjust until the text is centered at the top of the stamp.
For the text below that remains readable from left to right, create a smaller path circle, then type since 2024. Adjust its position below. Add two small stars as separators on the left and right.
Place a coffee cup icon in the center of the stamp from a basic shape. Save and export the stamp.
Done. We have already created a circular path typing with the Type on a Path tool adjusting the text position placing the text below and arranging the stamp In the next episode, we will convert the text into a shape using Create Outline Need a logo design brand identity vector illustration infographic or print and social media materials?
