[Gimp-user] how to make condensed text along path

[Zhang Weiwu]

Hello. I followed the tutorial of how to make text along path:

http://gimp-tutorials.net/node/114

My difficulty here is to make manually condensed text along path. I want
the text so much thin that any font's condensed version could not do. To
make such condensed text, I either scale the text layer with layer scale
tool, or I convert the text to path and scale the path. However after
scaling layer or path, "Text along path" no longer apply.

Any idea? thanks in advance for hints.

Attached is the "text along path" I made, with the ordinary text, not
condensed (only 1.4KB).
