How to tweak line of text

[hikermann]

Illustrator 10 -- Am attempting to create an illustration which includes a perspective of a sign; want to tweak a line of text to match arched shape of the sign; any help? In other words, so that the text is larger at the closest visual point and decreasing in size as it moves to the right of the sign shape. Appreciated.

Oddly, this is all covered in the Illustrator manual for the past 20 years.

Thanks. Nothing odd about that should one actually have such a manual . . . Did get a helpful answer elsewhere, however. Thanks again for your response.

I'm referring to the manuals that come with the software. It takes extraordinary effort to not have such a manual.
