I erased part of text letter to get a different shape (then applied stroke). To do this photshop rastersized the layer so I could erase so the loopy detail I did not want. I am now trying to convert to shape so it can be used for print but I dont have the option to convert to shape like I do with the unaltered text. Is there an easy way to do this? thank you

The Super Zoom neural filter is great! However, it doesn't seem to be compatible with a batch processing workflow because its output is limited to: - New Layer: Even using the New Layer option, the enlarged layer is added over the original, but the document canvas size isn't scaled to match it. - New document: Creates an "Untitled" document, which renders batch processing useless if I wanted to retain the original filenames.  I really just want to be able to run Super Zoom on a folder of images, and the output them into another folder. If there is a way to add an option in which Super Zoom can be applied to the original document, that would be wonderful.   The problem with this is that neither of these options work with batch processing of images for Super Zoom. 

I know this is a real newbie question but I can't seem to find an answer. I want to create my image size to be 7.75" x 9.75 w x h to fit inside an 8 x 10 matted frame. Everytime I try to change the image size, the dimension auto adjust. How can I work around that or accomplish my objective? In addition I want to put a larger border around the image so the overall print is larger than the matte itself.

Photoshop’s Options bar, Preferences labels, and panel headers are very light gray and hard to read on my 4K Dell U2725QE—even with Lightest theme, Large UI font, and 200% UI scaling. The fields/values are fine, but the labels lack contrast.What I’ve tried:Windows Display Scale = 200%Photoshop UI Font Size = Large, UI Scaling = 200%Color Theme = Lightest and second-lightestMonitor calibrated (Dell UltraSharp U2725QE 27″ 4K IPS Black)Text in other apps is clear; Photoshop’s label gray remains too faintProposed solution:Please add an independent “Label/Text Contrast” control or High-Contrast UI Mode that renders labels (Options bar, panel headers, Preferences labels) in a darker tone without changing document appearance. A simple toggle like “High-contrast labels” would solve this for high-PPI users and those with reduced contrast sensitivity.Setup: Dell U2725QE, Windows 200% scale, Photoshop Large UI font + 200% UI scaling, Lightest theme.

Is there a way to have a real-time updating preview box (or thumbnail view) so that while I'm zoomed in, I can see how what I'm working on looks at its full view? Does any tool like this exist in Photoshop?This question is probably confusing, so what I'm talking about is this kind of feature that exists in Paint called the Thumbnail View:Paint Tool Sai also has this feature:I ask because I'm working on some pixel art and it's really annoying to have to keep hitting Ctrl+1 whenever I want to see it at its full size, then have to zoom all the way back in to get back to work. It seems like a no-brainer for Photoshop to have this feature, but I can't find it. It's also a hard topic to search for since "Thumbnail View" in Photoshop usually refers to layer thumbnails or file icons.

it's unbelievable... every time there is even a small system update on the mac, my printer (canon pro 300) prints out washed out reds. it's baffling!mac studio, photoshop, canon pro 300 (all very up to date!).

My problem: My working surface is yellow-ish. All colours appear to be more yellow-ish than they should be as you can see in the pictures below.When i export the picture it is normal again (not yellow-ish anymore).Also the pictures in the preview are in the original colours (not yellow-ish).As you can see it's yellow-ish just in the working surface.These are my colour settings ... well in german. Also i don't use the view of a proof.Maybe some of you have a clue for me.Thanks in anticipation!

Need to find and load the old CAMPBELL font.  Any sugsestions?

Hello everyone! Wanted to ask for your help/advice. I am having trouble with saving raw to jpg after the latest Photoshop update (23.0/Camera Raw 14.0), MacOS. When I open a Camera Raw file to edit it, it has all the data I expect, and it is the appropriate file size – approx. 44MB. However, after editing and saving it to a 300dpi JPG, the final file size seems far too small now – between 4 – 8.8MB in comparison to 20MB and higher I was getting before. I have saved the files at the highest image options (Maximum 10-12). If the same file is then opened and saved from Photoshop, again in the highest Image Options quality and Format Options as Baseline (Standard), the size is reduced even more down to 500kb – 1MB!When I try to open, edit and save the same file in latest version of Lightroom, the final size of JPG is almost 23 MB.I was playing with Camera Raw Preferences and tried several settings there (Adobe Default vs. Camera Settings + checked Override master settings for specific came

My steps: I created a new Brush Preset, and then in the Brush Settings in the Shape Dynamics window, I tried to turn off Pen Pressure for this brush. But as soon as I start drawing, it instantly reverses back by itself. If I uncheck Shape Dynamics, it also reverses back as soon as the pen touches the tablet. How do I stop it from reversing? There is no 'save settings' button.I tried to create presets based on Hard round and Hard round pressure size brushes. 

Hi all,I am wanting to create a repeat pattern for a wallpaper design with the pattern below on photoshop.On all the tutorials the background seems to start as a square not sure if this matters but my background measurements are 52cm width by 76cm length which is the length of the pattern down before it repeats again and the width of the wallpaper across.Basically, I am wanting to create a repeat pattern so the flowers don't appear so regimented and the repeat doesn't look so grid-like and the pattern just intertwines without any obvious repeat.Is there a way to do this on photoshop?Many thanksR

Here are my problems I have been having over the past few months1. When I switch tools by clicking on their icons, or using shortcuts sometimes the tools will automatically change to the last option.     a. I click on the brush tool, (or press B,) and the tool automatically changes to Mixer Brush Tool, instead of the first option which is Brush.     b. This happens with every change in tool, (if i select Move Tool, it switches over to Artboard Tool.) 2. Another strange one, if I for example select four layers and attempt to move them, it will without fail remove one of the layers as I begin to drag them with the move tool.Why does this occur? I can Alt Cntrl Shift to reset PS, but it has become incredibly tedious to do so.

Hi everyone. I often purchase clothing mockup templates that contain smart objects in layers where I can add my own artwork. Been doing this for years with no problems. On a Mac. I recently upgraded to Catalina OS and at the same time to Photoshop 21.2.2 Now, whenever I try and save the smart object layer I get the error message :"Could not update smart object files because the file was not found." One suggestion I found online was to make sure PS has access to all file and folder in the security settings. It didn't, but now it does. And it's still showing this error. I don't understand what it's looking for. The image is there as a layer. It's not a linked file, I pasted the image to a new layer within the smart object. This always worked previously. Oddly tho, it does seem to save it and the change is reflected in the main image! So whilst it appears I can work as normal - it's just annoying that this box pops up every time I make a change to a smar

I am a volunteer retoucher for a non profit organization called Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep. 90% of my work is done in PS on my desktop witha Wacom tablet. I bought an iPad M4 as asmaller option to bring on vacation. While I love the Apple Pencil option, I am finding the iOS version of PS is severely lacking in some of the features I need. I was considering a Microsoft Surface Pro 11. Does anyone have experience with using that with PS? Will it run the full version of PS? If you use it, what specs would you recommend? Any reason not to switch from iPad to Surface Pro?

Using "ScriptingListener.plugin" I was able to record an action, however it triggers "Begin recording" and will not toggle it off, even if I make another action with the same script. Is there a way to trigger this action or the escape key? I want to be able to record multiple actions in a loop, so stopping recording is imperative.

I have a Script to bulk replace the SmartObject in the PSD file. It worked good in CC2015 but when I update my Photoshop Version, it doesn't work any more. I share here the part of that script which is noticed "error" by Photoshop.

Hello, community! My Photoshop keeps crashing whenever I open large PSD files. I’ve tried clearing the cache and updating to the latest version, but it still happens. Has anyone experienced this? Any solutions or tips would be amazing.

Hello,I wanted to create a web app for creating a mockup or eBook cover generator. So I wanted to change the image in the PSD (In smart object) file through the API.  I found this https://www.adobe.io/apis/creativecloud/photo-imaging-api.html on the official Adobe website. But don't understand how to get started with this. Can anyone help me with that?  Thank you 

quiero utilizar el comando licuar pero me sale "no se ha podido completar el comando licuar por que ha habido un error de disco" a que se debe y como puedo solucionarlo?

Context: Windows, Photoshop 2025. Horizontal guides already placed; need a vertical black→white gradient between the 3rd and 2nd guides from the bottom, drawn in the active layer mask.What works: recorded Actions (mask; gradient via pattern workaround).What I need: a reliable scripted solution to (a) add a standard layer mask if missing and (b) draw that guide-bounded gradient inside the mask.I’ve tried various snippets found online, but none were reliable (often hitting “Make is not currently available” or “<unknown> menu item not currently available”).Question: Could you please point me to an official, up-to-date reference of Action Manager events/keys for layer masks and gradients in PS 2025?       

Does Photoshop have a problem with Intel ARC?Why isn't there a live preview of effects and filters? Whenever I apply a Gaussian blur, I have to toggle the "Preview" on and off once to see the effect in the main window!I've set the graphics settings to High Performance. Speed and performance are good. I've heard the new Intel Core Ultra's ARC+NPU cooperation has great performance for such lightweight editing. Have I missed something here? Photoshop: Latest versionWin 11 24H2: Latest updateCPU CoreUltra 7 (14th Gen) + 32 GB RAM DDR5GPU: Intel Arc Graphics + NPU Assisted (latest driver update installed)

Hi all, I'd like to extend the lines/waves to the left (like in the attachment of the watercolor), creating the exact same texture and color gradient. It should resemble a watercolor, but digitally. Any tips are welcome, thanks in advance!
