Curved text without Warp?

I am using Photoshop 7 and need to place text on a curved path. Using the Warp Text tool introduces unacceptable distortions of the typeface (and the spacing seems poor). Is there a way in Photoshop to arrange text in an arc and manually letterspace to avoid kerning difficulties? I have a feeling that this is something that’s probably more an Illustrator process, unfortunately. I’d appreciate cc to my e-mail, please. Many thanks.

You can put the text tool cursor between the letters then press the alt,shift, or ctrl key plus arrow. Sorry having a brain blip atm and

a backup so can’t open Photoshop atm to double check, try one of those anyway, can’t hurt…anybody? (besides mike)
