Question

Copy paste text styles like MS Word?

Hello, Can't figure this out:

I want to be able to copy and paste just text format from one letter to another IN THE SAME TEXT LAYER.

Can this be done?

It will save me a lot of time with something I am doing if I don't have to apply text and color styles 20 times here.

Thanks.

      Hi Todd:

      There isn't a copy styles function in Photoshop, but you can save your text formatting as either a Character Style (or Paragraph Style) and apply it to other text in that same file.

      Hi, I tried that, but when I put a new style in, it won't apply to just one letter, just the whole text layer.  I'm trying to make a sort of drop cap, where the first letter of every word is a different font.

      Hi Todd:

      Paragraph styles are intended for an entire paragraph, character styles are for one or more selected letters. Which one did you create?
