how to create arch text in wordart with word 2010?

Just follow the step below.
1. Open the "WordArt" toolbar by clicking on "View," "Toolbars," and "WordArt."
2. Click on the "Insert WordArt" button in the toolbar to open the "WordArt Gallery" dialog box. Select a semi-circle and click "OK."
3. Type in the text you want to use in the "Edit WordArt Text" dialog box. Choose your preferences for font, size, and formatting, and click "OK." The WordArt will be placed onto your page.
4. Select the image text on your page. Then use your mouse to pull on the corner of your WordArt (in the curve). Pull down the corner until the shape becomes a half-circle.
5. Choose a different half-circle by selecting your text. Then click on the "WordArt Shape" button in the "WordArt" toolbar and pick the "Arch Up (Curve)," "Arch Down (Curve)," Arch Up (Pour)," or "Arch Down (Pour)" shape from the options.

Okay I know the real answer to this. You don't need special graphics or anything. In Ms word you go to insert, then picture, and select wordart. (or there is a little button that has an A with a 3d cube and cylinder on it on the tool bar) When you get into wordart, pick the type of lettering you would like, then type what you want it to say. Once you push okay, there will be a tiny tool bar in the bottom left corner. On this task bar you can edit the shape, colors, and other stuff. To get the shape you want, click the ABC button on the little tool bar and select what you want it to look like. Follow the same steps to get the second word, and then overlap the two.
I hope that helps

use the loft command. create a 2d section of key geometry changes along the arch and then use the loft command to create the 3d solid along the path arch using the 2d sections to create the shape. it's very quick too. Answered Jul, 02 2011

You said 2010 so I responded to that question and no they are not
WordArtStyles of 2007/2003. The WordArtStyles are not in 2010 on the ribbon
but you can insert any of the WordArtStyles from 2007 and the WordArtStyles
will show up when inserted.

I suggest you save one in autotext (WordArt 2007 shape) and insert it in
2010 and then go from there so you are working as in Word 2007 and Word 2003
with WordArtStyles.

No time to delve further today as to the differences between 2007/2003 and
2010 WordArt. Answered May, 18 2011
