How to Curve Text in Figma : Step-by-Step Guide
Start by opening the Figma project where you want to apply the curved text effect. This will be your workspace to make all the adjustments directly on your design canvas.
Next, locate and click on the specific text element that you wish to curve. Selecting it ensures that any changes you make will be applied to this text.
Once your text is selected, look for the "Resources" icon in Figma's toolbar and click on it. This opens up the plugins and asset options you’ll need to curve your text.
For a visual walkthrough, check out the tutorial video linked here, which demonstrates the process in action. Watching it can help clarify the upcoming steps.

In the Resources panel, find and select the plugin named "ARC - Bend your type!". This tool is designed specifically to help you curve and adjust your text smoothly.
Now, you’ll see controls for "Bend Strength" and "Preview Zoom"—adjust these sliders to shape the curve of your text and zoom in or out for a better view of the effect.
After you’re happy with how the text curves, confirm your changes by clicking the "Apply" button. This finalizes the effect on your selected text.
Well done! Your text is now beautifully curved in your Figma project, adding a dynamic and creative touch to your design.
