|
|
I wanted to copy some text from open office into a new page in Photoshop cs3. I know you have to treat the text first, but how? I need to edit it in Photoshop.
I tried to use Acrobat and convert the text to a PDF, but the PDF couldn't be edited after I pasted it into a Photoshop page.
There's a way to do this in Illustrator, I think. but I couldn't find it. And maybe HTML would work. Can anyone advise? _________________ Robert Gieske |

hi grnskl,
okay, list the steps you use to try to do this. maybe you're just missing a step or two. if you list the steps, that might help me/us figure out what's going on. _________________ moondog

I input the text in Open Office, select all, copy ... but it won't paste into my Photoshop document. I convert it to a pdf, which will paste into PS doc OK, but you can't edit.
Then I called on the great Moondog. _________________ Robert Gieske |

The Great Moondog hahahah .... I don't care who ya are, that's funny!
No seriously ....
Step 1: Input Text in Open Office (completed)
Step 2: Select All / Copy (completed)
Step 3: In Photoshop on your document you select the TEXT tool and then do one of 2 things
A: click on the document where you want to place the text
B: click and hold the left button down to create a box for your text to stay inside of
Step 4: Paste text into your document.
Let me know if this does or does not work for you. _________________ moondog

And where is the TEXT tool in Photoshop? Do you mean the Print tool?
