Art Text, from BeLight Software, is a Mac design app devoted entirely to text as artwork: 3D lettering, logo typography, headline effects and text mockups that would take hours of manual work in a general-purpose editor. You type your words, then shape them with distortion and warp tools, fill them with textures, photos or spray effects, apply realistic materials and lighting for 3D looks, and export the finished graphic for use anywhere. Version 4 is the current generation — recent updates added AI-assisted features for generating and enhancing text graphics — and it remains a one-off purchase rather than a subscription.

Key Features

• Full 3D text rendering with adjustable materials, bevels and lighting
• Text distortion and warp tools for curved, arched and custom lettering shapes
• Spray Fill and texture fills that fill letters with photos, patterns or particles
• A large library of templates, styles and ready-made text designs
• Exports finished graphics in common formats for print, web and social media
