I know that CorelDraw allows such feature where you can make the text
follow a curve and make it start large and then vanish along the 
curved shape.  All I need to do here is to draw a circle and make the
text follow the circular shape on the outside (in a kind of projection
from the center of the circle).


Ex:
                   S y n
		    +  + d
		  +       + r
                +   SYMB    + o 
                +           + m
		  +       + e
		    +  +

Where we have an acronym in the center and we want to project the actual
words at the edge of the circle.
 
Please direct your responses to my e-mail address and if there enough
interest, I'll summarize and post.
  
Thanks in advance,
