How do you arch or bend a word in Libre Office Draw in the fontwork. Before
this latest update when you typed in the word you had to choose 1 of 8 arch
degrees to pick from now there is none. Also I would like to be to able do a
word in an under arch like a smile. Evan in the old version when you did a low
arch it flipped the word upside down. It would be nice to do an upper and lower
arch around a form. In the fontwork gallery there is a under arch in lime green
but it has a shadow effect on it. That is not the effect I am looking for. Also
I was wondering if you could add into the font text line a candy cane,a bold
calligraphy and western / western rope font in your line. I can find them on
line or in a book but I have to past them in. There is an old book call
"Lettering and Alphabets" by J.Albert Cavanagh ISBN 0-486-20053-1 under Dover
Publishing Company that has some very good examples of bold calligraphy and
western.
     If you could contact me I would greatly appreciate it. 

Thank You,
Sandy Forbes
