Text formatting

Using text:
  • We can write text on the image by using text tool.
  • Text formats like size, color, style, font, alignment, etc., are changed by using the fields in the bar at the top while writing text as shown in the figure below.
  • As well as we can write the text on the image or any background.
Text formatting:
  • First, link all your text layers: Select one text layer (makes no difference which), then click in the "link" box (to the right of the eyeball) in the layers palette for each of the other text layers you want to change. You should see a chain icon appear in them.
  • Then select the Text tool, if you haven't already. 
  • To make a global change to all your linked text layers, just hold down the Shift key when you choose something from the Text Options bar or the Character or Paragraph palette. 
  • For example, to make all the type 18 point, hold down the Shift key while you choose "18" from the Type Size field in the Options bar or the Character palette. 
  • Tab out of the field to see all your text layers resize to 18 points. Want to change the color of the type on all the text layers?
  • Hold down Shift and click the color field in the Options bar or Character palette.
  • When the Color Picker opens you can release the Shift key.
  • Choose a color (the Preview will only show your targeted layer changing, but don't worry) and
  • Then click OK.
  • All the linked text layers change to that color.
