Hello!

I am creating a dvd imprint and need text to run along the outside edge on the inside of the circle. I have tried the text on a path tool but i can only get that to create text on the outisde of the circle. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks so much!

 
Drag the I-beam across the circle path to the inside. In Illustrator 10 it looks like this:

In Illustrator CS, the I-beam is just a vertical line:

Put your text in like you have done, then use the 'Selection Tool' or the 'Direct Selection Tool', select your path, then put the cursor on the I-bar infront of the first letter, click and drag across the path, it will jump back and forth, inside path, outside path.

Cheers.
 
if i remember it correct it was only possible with the direct selection tool.
