Curved labels on polygon layers

[Alexey]

Hi!

How can I create curved labels and adjust distance between label letters on polygon layers?

For example “COASTAL PLAIN” label here

or “ALPS” label here

Thanks for any help.

Alexey: That’s a good idea to include in the future. They are not available now. The ones you see are from an old Illustrator file that is not georeferenced.

You can simulate this look using Maplex in ArcInfo license. Or creating a centerline of the feature and then drawing the annotation using that representation.
