Step 1

Go to File > New (set the settings to match the picture below)

Step 2

Select the Elipse Tool then draw a circle on the document.

Make sure the settings match the picture below

Step 3

Now select the text tool and click somewhere on the circle line and then type some text and it will follow the path.

Step 4
