Re: Text as shape
yes you can do this
if you look on the arrange menu you will see an item 'fit text to curve'
if you have text and a heart shape you can select both and click 'fit text to curve' and the text will be moved to follow the outline of the heart - you can then ctrl+click the heart shape and make it no colour to hide it
that's the theory
in practice, the trick is to get it all lined up right, takes a bit of planning and a heart shape has some tight corners - the text is still editable in the text tool after it is fitted to the 'curve' [shape outline] so you can tweak it
