I want to create an invitation card with curved text on the front page. A simple text on the edge of a circle is all I need, no complexer curves. I stumbled on the tikz package but am not satisfied - most likely due to missuse on my part.

\documentclass[a5paper,foldmark]{scrartcl} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{graphicx} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \draw[decorate,decoration={text along path,text={Invitation},text align=center}] (0,0) arc[start angle=240, end angle=-60, radius=5cm]; \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} 

My Problems are the following:

• If I Increade the radius, then it wont be centered anymore. How can I get a bigger, but still centered radius?
• I managed to increase the textsize by an {\Huge {tikz enviroment}}. How to get it even bigger?
• How to get it to set it like \textbf{...}?

Future work on the document: I want it to go with a fancy fonts, but I wanted to tackle one Problem at a time. This Fonts require LuaLaTex,

\usepackage{fontspec} \setmainfont{QTSlogantype} .... \Fontlukas\slshape \Fontskrivan\slshape .... 

I am using MikTeX and TeXstudio as editor - if there are some concernes.

Having used TeX only for math so far, I am rather shocked by the steep learning curve I am meeting at "normal" typesetting.

All help is welcome - even when pointing out impossible/imcompatible tasks. If there is a package/command which just simply does, what I want, I would be more then happy.

Tanks a lot!
