How Do I Make Text Vertical in Canva?
Are you looking to make your text stand out in your Canva designs? One way to do this is by making the text vertical. In this tutorial, we will explore how you can achieve this effect using Canva's user-friendly interface.
Step 1: Accessing the Text Tool
To begin, open Canva and create a new design or choose an existing one. Once you're in the editor, locate the toolbar on the left-hand side of the screen. Click on the "Text" tool icon, which resembles a capital letter "T". This will activate the text editing mode.
Step 2: Adding and Formatting Text
With the text editing mode enabled, click anywhere on your design canvas to add a text box. You can then enter your desired text into the box.
If you want to make your text bold, wrap it with the tags. For example:
Your Bold Text Here
To underline your text, use the tags. For example:
Your Underlined Text Here
Step 3: Rotating Text Vertically
Now comes the fun part! To rotate your text vertically, click on the selected text box to reveal additional formatting options in the top toolbar.
- In the top toolbar, locate and click on the "Rotate" button (represented by a circular arrow icon).
- A drop-down menu will appear with various rotation options.
- Select either "Rotate left" or "Rotate right" to turn your text vertically in that direction.
Step 4: Adjusting Size and Position
After rotating your text, you might want to adjust its size and position to fit your design better. Simply click and drag on the text box's corners to resize it, or click and drag the text box itself to reposition it within your design.
Remember, you can always experiment with different fonts, colors, and styles to further enhance the visual impact of your vertical text in Canva.
