I'm having trouble flipping arched text in Photoshop CS6. All the other answers seem to use Type on a Path which I can't find in my version.

Heres what I'm trying to do, I want to flip the lorem ipsum text upside down so it reads correctly, while maintaining the proper curve:

I apologize because this isn't really an answer. I don't believe you can do something like this in Photoshop, although because I almost never do much with text in Photoshop, I could be wrong.

Flipping text while maintaining it on a path can only be done using the Type on a Path Tool in both InDesign and Illustrator, so you are on the right track there. However, Photoshop doesn't have the same type of Type on a Path tool as those other two programs do. Instead, you use the Horizontal Type tool on a previously created path. Here are the instructions for CS6: www.dummies.com/software/adobe/photoshop/how-to-create-path-type-in-photoshop-cs6/.

I think your best bet (if possible) is create your document in either InDesign or Illustrator (depending on the rest of the content). If you have to use Photoshop to edit the photographic portions of your image, then save the image and place it in Illustrator or InDesign and create the text in one of those two programs.
