A text item created using the Text tool can be transformed into a path
using the Create path from text button in the
Tool Options for the Text tool. This can be useful for several
purposes, including:
-
Stroking the path, which gives you many possibilities for fancy
text.
-
More importantly, transforming the text. Converting text into a
path, then transforming the path, and finally either stroking the
path or converting it to a selection and filling it, often leads to
much higher-quality results than rendering the text as a layer and
transforming the pixel data.
