I'm in the process of designing a cd and I have 10 layers with type on it. I'd like to know how I can change the font in one layer and automatically adjusts all other layers.
Is this possible? I guess it is, now I have to change each layer manually....not very efficient I know :-)
I manually created text around a circle using layers and the text rotating function. Now I would like to change the color of each of the letters. Do I have to individually select each layer to do this?
Is there a way to change multiple MTexts at once to a certain font? I don't have the full version, only AutoCAD LT 2013 so unfortunately I don't have the fancy express tools or lisps.
I have at least 1000 MTexts that need to be changed. This will take a long time if I have to activate each one and change them individually.
I have found this post from April where the bug was acknowledged in the beta:
[URL]......... Â I now have the official release of CS6, and I am still seeing this issue. And for clarification, here's what the issue is: Â - I start off creating a text layer with a font size of 20px. - I then transform this layer to make it larger. - I copy the layer over so I have identical text layers. - When I select each individually, I am shown the new, larger font size, we'll just say 40px. But when I select both together, it shows the original font size of 20px in the character palette. When I increase the font size with both selected to say 30px, it actually makes the text more like 60px. Â Will this bug actually get fixed?
I would like to increase the font size in many text layers at a time by selecting them in the layers panel. The font increases, but the text boxes don't expand to fit the increased size text. So I am having to make each box bigger manually. Is there a way to have the boxes expand to fit bigger text automatically through the layers panel?
I'm using CS4. I have multiple layers of text and I want each one to have a different drop shadow effect. When I try to chnge the settings of one layer's shadow, all the layers change. Is there a way to stop this?
How to Apply adjustment layers to multiple layers that have different blending modes and keep the colors the same as the adjustment done?  I work in Animation painting Backgrounds. My files are sometimes upwards to 200+ layers.I will use adjustment layers to quickly balance colours and constrast on top of those many many layers.  The only way that I know of how to apply adjustment layers it to every single layer ( by applying I mean I need to get rid of the adjustment layers because we cant use them in production but i need the new colours be applied to all layers underneath ) in a psd is to manually do it By duplicating the adjusment layer 200+ times and then merging each layer to one of those adjustment layers so that that layer can take the adjustment layers effect permanently.  The issue is that Within Those 200 layers I have some layers set to Multiply or OVERLAY.   IT obviously wont apply the adjustment layer properly to those layers because those layer blend mode affect the layers under them. The colour wont be the same anymore in the spots that had the multiply blended mode.

I have 2 adjustment layers up top. I need to get rid of them by applying them to each layer! I cannot merge any of the layers. We need all those layers for production.I can apply the adjustment layers manually and this works GREAT for all Layers set to normal. THey take on the colour change just FINE.  However, The issue is that layer 6 and layer 4 are both set to mutiply and this screws up the colour once i apply the adjustment layers to each layer manually...  How can i apply my adjustment layers to a file like this with some layers being set to multiply while keeping the layers exactly the same configuration and The new colour taking effect exactly how i looks before i apply the adjustment layers? Now the simple solution is to merge the multiply layers to the layer that it affects HOWEVER I NEED those multiply layers to be separate!Â
Imagine a layer containing 10 squares, each square is isolated (none are touching). I need a quick way to put each of those squares on its own layer. Is there something already built in, or any plugin or action?
I have a series of pics (approx 80) that I'd like to load into Elements, with each photo going into a single layer. I google'd a series of old posts where somebody used a "script", but the links are no longer working and that trails is dead.
Very difficult to change a font in Photoshop CS6: I select the font then go to the dropdown (either the side panel or the options panel at top; same results) and BEGIN TO scroll down to find the font I want to change to. After a couple seconds, the list pops back up to the top. Usually I cannot scroll past the fonts beginning with M or N before it overrides my scrolling and pops back to the top again, If I can select quickly, I can sometimes nab a different font that starts with a B or C, but hardly ever one I am seeking.
I've recently installed Photoshop CS version 8.0 on my pc and even though I'm able to design in it as normal, when I come to create a text layer and try changing the font, Photoshop instantly freezes and then crashes, sending an error report saying that the programme is no longer responding. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software and I have also followed Adobe's troubleshooting article to include removing all the fonts that Windows does not require and still Photoshop crashes.
I'm using a HP xw4400 workstation with Windows XP version 5.1 and service pack 2. And I have 3.25GB of RAM.
My video card is a NVIDIA FX 1500 and I have no other applications on my computer apart from Scenarist for DVD Authoring.
I have no internet connection and the computer is a relatively new one so is fairly clean and has lots of space on the hard drive.
I've just gotten an ASUS Zenbook ultrabook, and I have to say that it runs PS (CS5) beautifully. Just one problem: with the 1920x1080 resolution, the menus, tools, etc. are tiny. Is there any way to change the size of the font in PS itself without changing the resolution on the whole computer?
I found a forum entry about changing the font size of captions in a slide show in PSE9. The fixer said there was no global fix to change the default font size for captions in PSE9. Is there a way to do that in PSE12? When my captions show up on the screen in PSE12, they are so small I can barely read them. I would like them all to be larger.
I'm going to connect my AI file to After effect. So I had to create lots of layers in order to edit them seperatly in After effects. But it seems like my amount of layers are too large because AE always crashes (not responding -> Force quit) Â So I wanna break some stuff down in multiple AI files, but I don't wanna go and select every layer and delete it. That would take too much time. Is there a way to select the multiple objects in Illustrator and delete that but also its layer its in?
We use Elements 4 and Photoshop CS2. When we open files made in the other program and try to edit text we get a dialog saying that the text has to be rasterized. Will this still happen if we upgrade to Elements 6?
I found an old thread from 2011 about the same problem and the mod reported it to the devs, but as far as I know no solution has ever been offered.(maybe in cs6? we are still using cs5)For one or two layers it's no problem to do it manually, but with say 40 layers with corresponding linked layers we need a better solution.
I am using CS2 on a XP64 machine. I am editing a .psd originally created in Photoshop 7 but saved under a different file name in CS2.When I open the file, a dialog box with this text appears: "Some text layers need to be updated before they can be used for vector output. Do you want to update these layers now?" The options are No and Update. Updating the layers changes all the text layers from font "Times New Roman" to "Radioactive", which I'm sure isn't a standard installed font. To avoid the problem in future edits, I saved the .psd under a different name through CS2 and then deleted all the offending text layers and recreated them using "Times New Roman" again. However, after saving the file and reopening it, I get the same problem as before. Should I perhaps delete the "Radioactive" font? I'd really rather not have to enter all the text in again.
Attempting to add text in Gimp 2.8.2. I can do everything I need (size, font, etc) except I can not get the color to change. When I change color, the text does turn a light grey, but it doesn't change color.
Here is a quick video I made with Jing showing my problem. You can see in the video that font selection changes and sizes changes, though.
I am trying to get a white layer with see through writing which reveals the background image underneath. (Almost like I have put a stencil over a photograph). I have discovered this is called a clipping mask.
However, I am having difficulty using a clipping mask over multiple text layers. It seems to only do it to one layer directly beneath. I do not want to merge the text layers as I want to mess about with the design a fair bit.
I am using Photoshop CS3 with 2 monitors. I have my palettes docked on the right side of the application on my left monitor. When I click the font list in the Character Palette, part of the font menu is on the left monitor and part of it is on the right.
I have been working on a book cover for a client and was asked to modify a capital letter in the chosen font. The letter "S" had a curly q at the top that needed to be removed. I converted the letter to an editable shape and deleted the offending nodes. Along the way I had to break the points and then reconnect. When I broke the points, Xara split the shape into 2 layers for some reason so I could not rejoin the points later. I ended up combining the layers and was able to rejoin the nodes that way.
The problem I had was that when everything was reconnected, I could only color the outline, the shape would not fill. I ended up having to export as a PNG to Photoshop, created an adjustment layer and painted it in. Everything looks great BUT I would have preferred to just reconnect the nodes and fill the letter in Xara.
I want to know if it is possible that a ctb file can change the font in my print. I am working in Project Wise and using Interplot I created a ctb file to do color mapping. The color mapping worked fine but it then changed my font from a font_iso to something unknown (in screenshot - hope it attached ).
I just want to rule out the possibility that it is / is not a setting from the ctb file. I am actually working with other drawing programs also on this project (MicroStation) but the problem only started when I used the ctb file and not with the MicroStation plot functions.
Here is a KB-article mfor "Changing font used for palettes"

(BTW: The "Applies to" - list is not up-to-date and the setting accepts only the font but not the colour)
But how to change the font which appears in the dialogue of Editors (Texted, att-ed, ...)? Yesterday I changed the Windows setting for "Dialogtext" (Messagetext?), but the dialogues only changed the colour but not the font ...?
Each time I try to change the fonts the application crashes regardless of whether it's a new/old document. I noticed this happening after I installed Illustrator CS5 by downloading it on my MBP Retina. Never had this problem on my old MBP 10.6.8. Either there's an issue with downloading the application or with 10.7.5.
