You can't in KeyNote, but you can use an external image editing program.


I like GIMP because it's free and open-source, as well as well-known, versatile, trusted, and safe - Download GIMP

You can also create curved text with the free app Vectornator (on the App Store)

The link below says “illustrator” but contains steps for Vectornator as well.

Because the text you create isn’t editable in Keynote, you’ll want to save a copy of your Vectornator file (create a folder and store the Keynote file and the Vectornator file) so that if you need to make edits, you don’t have to recreate the whole thing.
