Ring text
Text that curves around the edge of a round seal.
The defining feature of a round seal. Text along the top arches over the centre reading left to right; text along the bottom runs beneath it, normally set so it stays upright rather than hanging upside down.
Letter spacing is what stops a long company name from being squeezed illegibly into the ring.
