  • seperating letters in Photoshop CS

    Posted by Joettle on May 25, 2006 at 7:01 pm

    What i want to do is type some text in PhotoshopCS and then seperate the letters and make each letter it’s own layer. Does anyone know how to do this without going in and cutting out each letter or typing each letter individually?

    Thanks
    Justin

    No, I don’t – and I’ve often wished I did!

    One of the simplest ways to accomplish the same result is to duplicate your text layer – 1X for each character – and then mask out only that letter.

    But you probably knew that already. 🙂
