Canvas 3.0 does wrapping of text within an object, along with slanted 
text margins and binding text to a curve/polygon. I'm pretty sure 
Illustrator and Freehand also have these features.

I _think_ Pagemaker 4.x will also allow you to do this (confirmation, 
someone?), but don't have the manual handy at the moment.

Good luck,
