This command fits text between two points picked along an arc. Text is curved to fit the arc using individual text entities, which can only be edited one at a time. The Draw Text on Arc command creates an text entity that can be edited using Edit Text on Arc or Tangent. It will optionally display information about the selected arc. If you choose to display the curve data, you will be prompted to pick the endpoints of the arc in a clockwise manner. When prompted, enter the text you want drawn inside the arc.
Pick points in a clockwise direction.
