  • Copy text perimeters from one text layer to multiple others?

    Posted by Michael Garske on February 21, 2014 at 7:26 pm

    I need to change settings that are in the character panel on several text layers at once (Baseline shift, kerning, size, etc…). Is there an easy way to copy these character settings from one layer to another? Thanks!

    This script is the only way I know of doing it for a lot of text at once. textEdit

    Have you tried selecting all the text layers and adjusting the parameters?

    It’s not copying but, all layers will end up having the same parameters… or did I missunderstand this completly?

    Sorry I let this one go for a while. The textEdit script did the trick! Many thanks!
